2000-03-24 09:23:47 so yesterday was awful, and the whole week has been so blah and horrible and I'm just wishing it away. and Rosalie was saying how men have cycles just like women do, but I guess no one (meaning men) wants to talk about it or whatever, because it's women's stuff, etc. but it makes sense. I'm pms-ing like a motherfucker. that's the only explanation that makes sense. except that it's just been a lame crappy week. and yesterday a million things went...not wrong, but lamely, and I just wanted to have the day be over, and my mom calls and is telling how i HAVE to do something with my money, I can't just let it sit around, I have to invest invest invest, blah blah, and I'm like PLEASE MOM, i'm not in the mood, I'm just trying to have this day be over, and then she says I'm sorry, now I feel sad too. so now I feel awful that I made my mom feel sad too, but I just can't take care of her, I just NEED this day to be over so I can start over with the next one and get this week done with. so it's not even late, it's like 10, but I just want to go to sleep NOW and make the day be over, and so I go to the bathroom to brush my teeth, and I grab my toothbrush, and I've seen this happen in movies, I've seen this on the brady brunch, but I've never actually known anyone it's happened to in real life before, but I go to turn on the water, and the sink, the handle, the thing you turn pops right off and the there's water everywhere, blasting up onto the ceiling and cascading around everywhere, and suddenly I'm as wet as if I'd spent my whole life up until this point swimming, and I even start to do the thing where I put my hand over the whole to try to staunch the flow, and I yell panicked for Rosalie, because I don't know what else to do, and then I remember somewhere in my head, I don't know where from, because I've never been in a situation before, but I realize you can turn the water off under the sink, so I go down and start fiddling, and then the water is coming out MORE than before, and then I go the other way and there's no more water coming out, but it's still dripping down from the ceiling onto us. And I'm hysterical, telling rosalie to page the landlord, page the landlord, go go go, and she's like Wait, is this an emergency? and i'm like "yeah, I think so." and if I had the memory to do over, this is the part where I would have laughed more than I actually did. because it was funny, it's funny NOW, but last night, it was just another part of the day. today we find out whether all my stress this week was worth it, whether we get the apartment or not. 1230. k thank you very much & credits music: |
