A series of unfortunate events

Here I am, writing an entry, hoping that everything will go smoothly from here on.

Where do I even begin?

For starters, I woke up to the nice smell of sausages with freshly cooked scrambled eggs & melted cheese only to find out that we had no bread to eat it with. And so I waited for the delivery guy (my younger brother) to buy a loaf from the 7-11 store only to finally have my breakfast which by now was cold & icky.

This was then followed by my routine 30-minute exercise and fitness session which I've neglected for a week. Healthy right? Only problem was I sprained my back slightly as I was just into the first 10 minutes. Damn!

Next up was work. A scheduled meeting couldn't be that bad... except that the event I am currently working on is not getting the response I had hoped for & could possibly end up being scraped!!! A change of plans perhaps? *Sigh*

After that, I made my way down to the MPPP to pay my parking fine despite many telling me not to. Afterall, the officer who issued the ticket said I would just have to pay RM7.50 if I settled the fine within 7 days. Why not eh? When I got to the counters, I had 20 people before me waiting.. at 10.30am!!! Doesn't anyone work? Luckily the counters were efficient & within 30 minutes (or less) it came to my turn. The young lady at the counter then told me the fine was RM10. Ohhhhkayyy... I told her the officer said it was only RM7.50 if I paid within a week. She said that's true, but the date I was supposed to pay on was yesterday. Fine! RM10 it was then.. no big deal.

At this point, I was still being optimistic about how the day would pan out.

I arrived safely at the office and went about doing my work, thankfully without any further fuss. Lunch time proved another matter altogether. As I packed up for lunch, I was also bursting to go to the toilet. And when I got in to do my business, the zipper wouldn't budge! The darn thing was stuck. By now I was consumed by hunger & the need to pee.. badly! Anyway, I tugged and pulled and finally it budged! The excitement was short-lived as it only came down a quarter of the way, leaving me to wriggle out of my pants to heed nature's call. It was not a pretty sight but I'll leave that to your vivid imaginations.

A quick lunch was followed by more work at the office. Usually I'd take a walk out for a good few minutes at least every hour to stretch. During one of these walks I suddenly realized the other guy that I was sharing the office unit with had locked me in! And he had applied the combination lock on the front door. Arrrggghhhh!!!! Thank goodness I have a beautiful saviour to come rescue me.

Now I'm just waiting for my saviour and praying nothing else happens.
