Now That I Know, First-Hand, What That "Manic Monday" Song Is All About...

My horrible Monday morning started at 1:13am. I go to the bathroom, flush the toilet, thought I heard an extra popping noise but ignored it and went back to writing. I realize that the water to fill up the tank is still going. It's been plenty long enough to fill up the tank, what's going on? I walk into the bathroom to see the tank of my toilet leaking! I take off the top and the wonderful little device that's supposed to float on top of the water and tell the tank to stop filling up has broken off. Lovely! I flush the toilet again and try to turn off the water valve to the toilet except for it's so covered in lime and calcium deposits that it's not turning at all! I hold down the little thing to get the water to stop and try to figure out what to do. I call my landlord at about 1:30am after several attempts to find something heavy enough to hold down the other side of the lever and failing. He comes over and can't turn off the stupid water valve either. He rushes to get tools and we finally get that situation under control. He's supposed to be replacing my toilet today, hopefully it gets done or my manic Monday isn't over yet.

Then this morning I get up and start making my bed. I totally forgot that there's a phone jack against the wall and slammed my foot into it. For a minute I seriously thought I might have broken a toe. Then I trip on my overly wide pajama pant leg and almost fall right on my face. Oh, wait I'm not done... Then I get to work and as I'm trying to slide out of my car my stupid car door comes slamming down on my arm! What the heck? So I've decided that if I'm going to survive this crazy day I'll need to be wrapped in bubble wrap. Does anybody want to help me out with that?
