The day has barely started, and I'm already feeling annoyed and ready for it to be over. It's only petty stuff, but it has put me in a bad mood.
Yesterday was my dad's birthday, so we had cake. Since I have a hard time resisting cake, I was only going to have a bite this morning and then eat my regular breakfast. Well, as it usually happens, I can't stop with one bite, and I ended up eating a large piece for breakfast. I was mad at myself for doing that, and then I felt a little sick afterwards. Now I'm feeling fine and kind of hungry again. Stupid, unhealthy, unsatisfying breakfast.
My dad recently went on a business trip to Alaska and like he always does when he goes on business trips, he buys my mom, sister, and me souvenirs (jewelry 99.9% of the time). This morning I decided to wear one of the necklaces that he bought me and as soon as I put it on, it fell right off. The stupid chain broke. I asked, "Seriously?" out loud to myself. It's a jade necklace so I know it wasn't cheap, but I don't know about that chain. I was running late, so I didn't have time to examine it, but I don't think I can fix it. I can still wear the jade pendant on another chain, but I'm pissed that this was the first time I put the damn necklace on and it broke after 1 second. And I'm still angry that one of my favorite bracelets just randomly broke two weeks ago, and I'm even angrier that I can't find one of my other favorite bracelets. I have no idea where it could be. I should just stop wearing jewelry - it would save me from frustration and from spending money. As I say this, I should point out that a couple of days ago I broke down and bought another necklace from Etsy. I wasn't very pleased with the last two I bought, and then I found
this, which I think is completely adorable. It still hasn't arrived yet, but I have high hopes that it will be just as cute in person. Now I am banning myself from looking at Etsy or any other online shopping websites.
I always listen to my iPod while I drive, and this morning I was able to listen to about 3 songs before it froze. It is stuck on a song, and I cannot get it to turn off. This has happened to my sister a bunch of times, so I'm not completely freaked out that my iPod is fucked. She always has to let the battery run down, which will then automatically shut the iPod off. I know the battery will be able to run down while I'm at work, so I'm hoping that my iPod will work again by the time that I leave. It better. And it better not freeze again.
It's very gloomy outside, and it's supposed to rain. I'm actually happy about this. I really want it to rain because the back of my car is COVERED in bird shit, and it needs to get washed away. I always have to park my car on the street because only one car can fit in our driveway, and my mom thinks she should be the only one that gets to park there. There are a whole bunch of dinky, little trees across from our house, and I have to park under them. I didn't go anywhere this past weekend, so my car just sat on the street the whole time. I first noticed that my car was covered with the trees' tiny leaves, which is kind of irritating, but most of them blew away when I started driving. Although, there are a select few that get stuck in the crevices of the car. And some manage to make their way inside the car, which I don't even know how that happens when the windows are rolled up (I looked over at the passenger seat and noticed three leaves just sitting there). I only noticed the back of my car when I stopped at the post office before work. That's when I discovered that the birds decided to add some pizazz to it. No thanks.
My sister and I finished watching Freaks and Geeks this weekend. Now I'm sad that there are no more episodes left. What took me so long to watch this show? I love it. I think we'll watch Undeclared next. I actually did watch this show when it first aired and really liked it. My sister has never watched it, and I've forgotten most of it, so I think its a good choice.
