Substandard Sunday

After my fantastic Friday the 13th, I guess it was only a matter of time before I had a bad day. Today was that day. Apparently I can't have 3 good days in a row. Said bad day went as follows:


It started off with me being woken up by my sister doing laundry and both of my sisters having an excessively loud conversation outside my bedroom door...(They were even talking/complaining about me). Next I got ready and went to work. I went to the bank before I went to work, at this bank there are 3 ATM's. I needed to deposit a cheque I got from the government. There was one man using the center ATM, so I went to go use the one on his right. On this ATM there was some unidentified red substance all over the keypad. It could have been spaghetti sauce, but I have NO IDEA what it was/why it was there. So I went to go use the ATM to this man's left. I kid you not, someone threw up on this ATM. It was pretty disgusting. Needless to say I waited for this man using the center ATM to finish his banking. 


After I got to work I was turning on the lights and when I flipped one of the circuit breakers in the back to turn on some of the spot lights, I broke 2 of my nails. Not a good start to my day so far. Later on after dealing with cranky customers, the credit card reader at one of the cash registers broke. It read "please remove card" there was no chip card inserted in the reader... We got that fixed by restarting the machine. To end my work day there was some lady who wouldn't leave even though we were closed. She didn't even end up buying anything, she put a pair of shoes on hold and left. So when I finally got out of there, I still had to go visit my dad's mom in the hospital. 


I walked up to the hospital and had a short visit with her, but I don't think she knew who I was. She seemed to think I was my cousin. It was really depressing actually. I didn't expect to be as affected by it as I was. I found myself choking back tears at one point. I suppose I thought that because I hardly see her, it would be sad, but it wouldn't get to me.  


I ended my day by heading home, and missing the bus I usually take. Instead I caught a different bus, where the stop is about double the walking time away from my house. But because I was taking this bus I stopped at the store and bought chips, ice cream and a chocolate bar. I think I covered just about all of the major food groups there. 


Now I just have to make it through my school day tomorrow (tomorrow is the extremely early day with the 8:30am class) and after school my boyfriend is going to come over. We're going to make pizza and probably play some more Super Mario Bros Wii. I'm excited.
