Journal Entry: Thu Mar 20, 2008, 2:34 PM
I'm not the kind of person who ever does the whole diary-journal-captains log thing - but this week has just been so excessive I just have to share it.

It starts out with my radiator leaking all over my carpet which is now saturated with water. Turns out, according to the mechanic, that it's been leaking for a while. My roomate confesses that she knew about the leak, but just choose not to say anything. For DAYS. But that's okay...I won't be angry. I just need to find a shop vac to get all this water out of the carpet....before the mold grows to an unbearable level.

The horror continues though. I then earlier had to move my furniture so I could try to pull the carpet up. In the process I knock over my xbox and this yankee candle I have which then shatters into a million pieces all over the floor. I then proceed to clean up the glass and end up with glass in all of these cuts all over my fingers (which are now bandaged - making it amusingly difficult to type). I still have to turn my xbox on to make sure it works but I'm just too afraid to.

Then I go to my painting class. Now, I NEVER get paint on my clothes. I get it on my skin, my face, but never my clothes. I'm pretty self-aware while painting. But yet today I somehow manage to get streaks of paint on various parts of my clothing. But STRANGE parts. One streak on my left shoulder, one on my stomach, one on the outside of my sleeve, one on the INSIDE of my sleeve...(can't figure out how that happened,) and even a couple on my back. I then go to a meeting later on and discover I also have paint on my pants. After scrubbing them in the bathroom I realize I can't get the paint out. Thanks oils. I try using turpentine. STUPID. Now they're stained. Which now demotes them to official "paint" pants. lol

But I'm still in a good mood. I've reached the 'ridiculous' stage. Now when I break something, knock something over, or something else goes horribly wrong, I just laugh uncontrollably.

It's just so sad it's funny.

And other things have happened through the day and week which really add to all this but that would make this journal entry really long and who wants to read all that? I know I wouldn't.

Edit : Wow, and I just realized that my journal has broken images on it. My server url changed and I forgot these were pointed to it...must fix

About myself


Hello, my name is Brittany and I am a 20 year old junior in college with a major in Graphic Design. I plan to go to Graduate School afterwards and get a degree in web design (but who knows, plans usually change). I am a web designer for West Chester University. I am also a hard core gamer...I would probably curl up and die without them. When I'm not working, playing videogames, or doing homework, I'm spending time with my future husband. I am in love with a wonderful man who I plan to spend the rest of my life with :)

I apologize before admitting that I loved this journal entry. It reminded me that it's not as bad as you might think.

This easter weekend consisted of me working on 3 cars for 10 hours a day (fri and sat) and 8 hrs on sun. Gotta love dishing out money for parts. Meh, long story but I thought you'd like to know you're not alone.

Did your future hubby smile and give you a hug?

Now just watch, you'll hit the lottery and cure the world of cancer.

Hehe, i can't help but laughing (but i guess that is okay since you are doing it yourself ;) ) Its sad to hear about all these horrible things that happened to you but when you go at it like you did and with all the little details around the circumstances it is rather funny.

I have had a few of these episodes myself (im pretty sure everyone has at some point in their lives) and while they suck, its nice to actually feel that we can laugh about them after they pass. It is an experience after all, and regardless of how many times they happen to us they always seem to be unique from one person to another at any given point.

Personally i would actually love to hear more about these "loopy" days that you have had, they give a good laugh :)

Enjoyed reading your journal, I soooo get what you're saying "It's just so sad it's funny." and I agree 100% and can relate :)

Have you ever heard of murphy's law?

It will get better with each laugh :heart:
