Invisible
It's always good to know that people see you as invisible. Like in the movie the Princess Diaries, there is a scene where the main character, Mia, is sitting eating her lunch in the garden when some guys walk up and one of them sits on her. He apologizes and says he didn't see her before he leaves. Mia then goes to talk to her best friend, and she says "Someone sat on me again." Again...
I kinda felt like that today. I was in lecture and the prof had handed out some supplementary material. The guy next to me took one of the sheets and then turned around. I put out my hand expecting him to hand the pile to me, instead he kept trying to pawn them off on the people behind me. How could he not see me? Finally when one of the people took the stack, they handed me a sheet. But still. I didn't help that I had been having a horrible day, and that seemed like just another nail in the coffin. It was like I wasn't there.
And then I forgot I which car I had driven to school in, and kept looking for the Grand Am. It's been over a month and I forgot I had the Jetta. That would be my bad. I'll blame that on the copious amounts of cold medicine I'm currently experiencing. Now I'm hungry...
EDIT: We ordered new countertops back in September, and they were supposed to be in by Christmas. That didn't really bother us...whatever. They almost installed them in January, except the guys dropped the all-one-piece unit when they were putting in on the truck and broke it, so they needed to remake it. Whatever, we are starting to get pissed but it's not the end of the world. But they came to put them in today, and the guys who initially measured the hole for where the sink should go? They did it wrong. We only found this out AFTER they tore the old countertops out and tried to put the new sink in. So they need to remake that piece.
We have no kitchen counters now, or kitchen sink...not for another 2 weeks. This day could not get any worse.
