(Grumble grumble grumble . . . . .)
It's not past 9 yet, so this won't register as next day, but I think I need to tell of all these funny little incidentals that happened just now while I'm still grumbling about them . . .
So, I slept in because I couldn't get up this morning, and thus was not able to go to a 2-hour class question session with my CS prof. That said, I'm probably more so screwed because of that.
Then, I wasted a couple hours looking up stupid things on the internet instead of studying. My fault, really . . .
In any case, I finally got to writing out some History notes at around 3. I got about half a page done when I had to leave to pick up my mom from work. Once I got her, she needed to make a quick errand, so I drove her to that place and waited in the car for her.
Then it all went to hell . . . . .
Well, there were some HUGE problems in the store involving line-ups and frustrating customers and stuff (I'm sure many of you can relate to that), so my mom took much longer than we had hoped . . . I actually noticed the sky grew dark during this time.
So now I'm driving home, after being in this car for almost an hour now . . . train tracks, train coming . . . what are the odds?
Get through some more rush hour traffic and stuff, just tired of being in this car . . . one last turn to get to my alley, my mother tells me, "you know, you're not going to be able to pass your final road test if you drive like this . . ." She then went on about how I need some of the elder males in my house to drive with me some time . . . well, I explained that I was not exactly in the most "driving-est" mood at that moment, having sat in a car for over an hour with finals to study for . . .
Well, her entire mood became somewhat apologetic towards me, noticing that I was visibly "grumbly" by this point. I also noticed that since I had been wearing hiking boots for an hour, my previously dry and cozy socks were now cold and damp. Grumble . . .
Got back to studying for a while, getting strides in notes down. Mother tells me it's time for dinner. Shortly afterwards I got up and noticed my kleenex box was almost empty. So I came out of my room, went downstairs . . . kleenex boxes not where they used to be . . . searched up and down for a couple minutes, checking different possible spots. Nothing. Grumble . . . I ask the elders, they point me in the right direction.
So I'm finally eating now. There's a small plate of lasagna for me to work on while the rest of my dinner reheats . . . . . BIG hunk of lasagna comes off my plate, onto my pants. Grumble grumble . . . . . get new pants on, finish dinner . . . and now I'm here.
I really hafta tell ya, when this week is over with, I will be a very happy man who will probably not be grumbling anymore . . . heh . . . ya know, if something else happens to me tonight, I just might go all out and say "bah humbug"! THAT is how grumbly I am right now!
'Ta.
