Friday the 12th


First... just let me say...

It's not Friday the 13th today. It's Friday the 12th. You'll see the importance here in a moment.

That being said, you should know that I had quite a rough morning.

I filled my coffee cup about 2/3 full and grabbed my backpack and purse and headed out to the car. Once in the car, I proceeded to put on lipstick in the dark. Normal occurrence... I do it everyday. When I was finished, I reached down for my coffee cup... and, it was vibrating. I thought that maybe the caffeine was just really, really strong. LOL... I was seriously perplexed. I flipped on the light and looked into the cup... Guess what I saw? My cell phone floating in the cup. No kidding. My cell is no longer operational. Not funny, huh? Thank goodness for the extra cell phone we have at home. duh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

At this point, I actually giggled and called myself a dumbass. Seriously, who does something like that? Just me... I feel quite certain!

I stopped at Speedway to get a 2nd cup of coffee. Got to work... opened the door and it was pouring down... Grabbed my umbrella... my purse... and reached across to the passenger seat for my backpack. And, as I pulled it across the console... I DUMPED my 2nd cup of coffee in the floorboard. The lid came off and all the coffee spilled out into the floor. I am totally NOT joking about this. I am the biggest DORK on the planet.

You'd think that it really was Friday the 13th. But... it's not. It's the Friday the 12th of September.

After reading your cellphone story, I had to pass along another cellphone misshap that may help you feel better.

Once, in a public restroom my phone fell in the toilet as I pulled up my pants. As I reached in to grab it, the automatic flush went off and WOOSH away my phone went!

I hope this Friday goes better for you!
