My Luck Runneth Out

Well, as your read this, you may have guessed that I didn’t hit the jackpot on my weekend away.  If I did, I would have been on my way to Europe, but there is always next time.  As I returned from my trip yesterday afternoon, I would have believed that my not winning in Atlantic City would be the end of my lucky streak.  But as I was about to find out…it was instead, just the beginning of my Unlucky Streak. 

I returned home from my trip and sat down to the computer to catch up on my email and blog.  I attempted to send my dear friend and e-card for her birthday, which was yesterday.  It seemed to malfunction, so I kept trying and trying…until I finally gave up.  Today I got email confirmations stating that it went through….17 times!!!  My goodness, how she must hate me!!!  How many times can one open an e-card without getting peeved at you????

Then, just as I am about to save my blog post, I lost my Internet connection, and after numerous phone calls and more troubleshooting and wait time than I care to discuss (which Chris will tell you is not a pleasant experience as I have no patience and get aggravated by these things very easily)….it was not restored until 24 hours later…and I lost everything in the process!  *damn*

I had a toilet malfunction….let’s just leave that one at that! *crap* (literally and figuratively)

And last, but not least, as I get in the car to head to work this morning, my car won’t start. *damn it all to he#@*  Dead battery.  Dead as a doornail.  All day, calling around, Chris having to leave work and cancel his dentist appointment to come jump-start my car and take me to have a new battery put in.

And how was your day?
