In Case of Emergency, Break Glass

Can we start the day over? Maybe not the day, maybe like the last 12 hours? It seems like everything I touch, falls apart! I don’t know when it all started. Things seemed to be going so well yesterday. I got off work early yesterday, went home finished cleaning the house, and got most of my laundry done before FHE. Following FHE, I was able to talk with a good friend I hadn’t seen in a while and Colin brought over his Logic so that I could help him study. I think this is when it all went wrong.

Now I loved Logic! Love. It always seemed so logical. But when Colin opened his books…we could have been looking at his physic books for all I knew. Yes, of course some of it came back, like truth tables and conjunctive statements. But what is a “wff” and where are the Venn Diagrams? Needless to say, I wasn’t much help to the studying, so we mostly just goofed around and consequently made the house very messy again. After Colin’s random texting and recurrent girlfriend mentioning, and departure, Flick and I decided to grab some food at Denny’s.

Now you should all know that me and Flick truly hate Denny’s, so what possessed us to go and eat this devil food, so late at night, I will never know. First of all, this food is about the lowest quality you can eat. I am surprised that the Health Board has not shut them down. Plus, everything is covered, covered in grease. I think that even if you got a salad you would find this to be true. And there is always quite a hodge podge of people that hang out at Denny’s late at night. Just like every other trip, last night was no exception.

Flick and I said our goodbyes and I headed home to straighten up our house and fall into bed. Nevertheless, when I got home, I discovered I had locked myself out!

Alright, I understand that I am crazy, but I have all of my keys on separate key chains. The car keys are one key chain, the house on another and the church keys on yet another. This has never been a problem! But of all nights to lock myself out! At least my roommates were going to be home later in the night, but the house was a mess and all the lights were still on. So I headed to my parents house to sleep and got up early this morning to head to the other house to get ready for work. I have kept the house so organized and clean the whole week! And it was all for naught! Best laid schemes!

Sleeping at my parents’ house was quite surreal. My parents’ house was really my grandparents’ house a few years ago, and I spent the five years of college and university living in that house and that room. So this is not the room I grew up. However, the same bed and furniture were in my room in Brooks. Seeing as I moved out of that house shortly after my parents moved to Lethbridge, the walls are completely bare, just a few stray nails to make it look like anyone ever lived in there.

I have been really off all day, and keep dropping things or accidentally turning off my computer and just a general off-ness. I hope that the rest of the day gets a little better, and my roommates are not horribly mad at the state of the house. C’est La Vie?

Love you! Miss you! Pleased as punch for this time with you.
