...you wake up with a weight crushing your chest. Your hair refuses to behave and a large, red zit makes itself comfortable on your nose. The toast gets burnt and the coffee burns your tongue. You drop the phone on the staircase and it bursts into three separate pieces, the battery goes flying right down to the last step. After you reach your car, you realise that the keys are still sitting daintily on your coffee table and you turn your front door knob three times the wrong way before you get it right. The rains cause damage to the already crappy road and the traffic police insist that you take diversion. You give him the best glare you got, wishing you could get away with showing him The Finger and drive off through the long, windy road to sign into the office a good 30 minutes late. The senior manager chooses this day to be cranky for he couldn't really get it up last night. You get all the numbers wrong and redo all the sheets and double check to find that the final figures don't match. The management announces that there are no hikes this year; they ask you to stay back and mail all the employees. The best friend ditches drinks and some dub step in your favourite watering hole for his girlfriend is in town and he's getting lucky. The person you hit on, almost out of desperation for something positive, turns out to be gay. You head home, sadder but none the wiser.
Creme de la creme? You get one good bang on the back of your head courtesy the headboard as you try to snuggle in and block the world out. One last sigh, one last prayer... Please let tomorrow be better.
Some days...
....you get a mail of appreciation from the strictest of bosses.
You get a mind blowing makeover for free in a swanky saloon on Brigade road.
You discover clarity of Skype on international calls.
And you go to sleep with a grin that refuses to be wiped off and a prayer... Please let everyday be exactly like this one.
hahhaahhaah true that .... and absonfreakinlutely true, wish every day was just *perfect* :P ...
ReplyDeleteGaaawd, if that happens... :D
DeleteI love the way you put it PeeVee!!
ReplyDeleteI've missed you so much!!
I went to brigade road yesterday and got dragged to eat momos and rolls on the streets cos the people I was with, didn't believe in drinking.
*facepalm*
You need to take the bad with the good but I've had a lot of days that made me think "I really shouldn't have gotten up today." Hell last Friday was one of them. I think my days are more mixed than good or bad.
ReplyDeleteRight when one thinks doomsday's around,one of these days randomly enters , and then on , you just want it to stay :D
ReplyDeletePS : Curious to see the mind blowing make over! =D (for u are one of those pretty-haired ppl I know)

ReplyDeleteI hate it when someone starts asking me question or gives me a chore as soon as I wake up. Ruins my day.
ReplyDeleteDon't you love those days when Skype works JUST SO EFFING FINE?! :D
ReplyDeleteAnd congratulations on the makeover and email.
I think The Man Above works to settle our grievances in a cutely adorable manner on occasions :D
Aah we all have our good days and bad days..
ReplyDeleteThough in my case the bad one's seem to outnumber the good ones :P
Hehehe.. but yes the last 3 lines..
Making it a perfect day.. Is great.. feels great once in a while :)
I read your post while having an almost similar day.The bad one i.e.! I could particularly relate to it! :-)
ReplyDeleteAhhhh if only!!
ReplyDeleteBTW, which saloon?? :D
Let each day be a good day! :D
ReplyDeleteI am yet to try Skype. And my boss only pisses me off when he refuses my applications for Earned Leaves. I am like, why the hell do you allot them if you won't give them to me.
But then, a good night sleep and everything is yesterday. :D
Cheers,
Blasphemous Aesthete
I have been overloaded by a series of bad days. :) But every once in a while, I stay inside, read a book and let the day slide. Others you have to go to work and deal with the shit. :)

ReplyDeleteThe narration of one of the peskiest days is good. They can get so irritating at times! and the sad part is, they outnumber the pleasant ones ...
