I have just finished a completely fucking miserable evening.
Mainly, I lost my damn wedding ring. I'm 99% sure I had it on at the office today, and it was missing while driving to errands afterwards (but before stopping anywhere). I have no recollection of removing it for any reason today, so I can only presume it just fell off because my fingers were cold. Theoretically, that should mean it's in the office, along the half-block walk to my parking spot, or in my car. Needless to say, I've gone over all those locations many times (in the fucking cold and dark, with a flashlight, for an hour or two >_< ). No damn luck. I found a penny, though. If I just found 49,999 more, then I'd only be out sentimental value.
But that, of course, was only the worst thing. Numerous other aggravations included:
- Taking the "short, direct" route to errands, which resulted in getting stuck in accident-derived traffic for half an hour.
- Buying a birthday present I happened to see from
tiercel's wanted list, only to later realize that it was the wrong title. At least they let me return it. Didn't have the one I actually intended to get, though.
- Ran low on gas, had to buy some at a higher price than my normal station.
- Just to top it off with something trivially annoying, I stepped in gum.
In short, shit fuck damn argh!!!
On the bright side, my winter vacation can only get better from here.
Now, sleep, because I have to get up in a bit over 5 hours to catch a plane.
My finger feels naked...
