Simple Plan was the first thing I heard when I turned on the radio this morning.

That was when I knew it was going to be a bad day.

I don’t want to go into the specifics of why today made me so dejected. Only that it was one of those days that made you just want to curl up in bed with a good book and some Latin bossa nova playing softly in the background. The wet, miserable weather didn’t help either. Especially when it turns rush hour traffic into - I hate to use this traffic report cliche but what the hell - a bumper-to-bumper crawl. So what does a logical person do but dawdle around in an empty office and chat about insipid things with friends over MSN until it’s late enough for the traffic gridlock to have dispersed.

And then, in the car on the way home, I spilled hot coffee all over my lap which happened while I was trying to wipe the coffee drooling down the side of the cup all because the barista at San Francisco had filled the cup right up to the brim and there was a slight gap between the lousy cover and the cup so that every time I made a turn, latte splashed out and started urinating all over my cup holder tray and gosh, this is an awfully long sentence.

F**king Frisco. And it’s a travesty for them not to have soy milk available as an option for the lactose intolerant. Well, not that I am. I just like the taste of a soy latte better. But that’s not the point. Point is, I’m sticking to Star-ripping-your-hard-earned-Bucks next time.

Of course, coffee spillage was not The Problem of the day. But it’s good to gripe about all the little things so that you can get your mind off the big ones.

Yeah, I’ve got issues.
