Sometimes you just want to start the day over.

ETA: I'm mobile so I can't change the title but I need to put a warning.

*****pregnancy and baby mentioned***

This day is NOT going as I had planned.

I got up this morning got dressed and even decided to put makeup on .... Big mistake!!!

I tried to boil some eggs, yeah not hard right? Well when you forget about them on the stove and and all the water cooks out of the pot they eventually explode and the lid of the pot shoots off to let you know. I forgot about them while getting dressed.

Ok let me make some cheese toast to eat ..... Easy right? Not when your preoccupied by putting makeup on. I burned the first piece so bad I set the smoke alarm off. Alarm people call to tell me they are going off NO SHIT, it's LOUD!!! So I tried it again .... Burned the second fucking piece. I'm getting shakes by now it's almost 11 and my sugar is dropping and I can't fucking cook anything. Peanut butter crackers it is!

Alright I'm fed looking good with my hair fixed, dressed and makeup on. Now I'm going to go do some shopping and finally get my hearing aid fixed so my family will quit bitching because I can't hear (like I want to sometimes). I walk in to get it fixed at SAMs and the girl that's always helped me is big and pregnant. Seriously June of last year when she adjusted it she was in the middle of a divorce and now she's looking 6-7 months pregnant.

Fuck that shit, I don't give a damn if I can hear. I think I'm just going to go home and lay on the couch and watch tv and maybe stop at McDonalds to get food I'm not suppose to eat because obviously cooking is not my thing either today.

So much for trying to get dressed for once!

Aw that sucks.... You really weren't having a good day were you? ((Hugs))

@rainbowbridge14 I caught my microwave on fire too! I was cooking rice in one of those Microcooker things from Pampered Chef and it melted the pot. Luckily DH (boyfriend at the time) is a volunteer firefighter and was able to get it out before I burnt my apartment down.... lol

Pintobean39 · August 2014

Y'all are making me feel better. I can't say I've ever caught my microwave on fire .... YET!

Maybe I should change this to what all have you caught on fire while trying to cook?

About a friend of mine (really is a friend, not me):

He made toast in an enthusiastic toaster. Toast started on fire, toaster ejected flaming toast into paper towels, which also burst into flames. Luckily, the cabinet was only a little singed.

His dad did something similar at one point. Must be genetic.

Pintobean39 · August 2014

ETA: I'm not thinking today

*** baby mentioned***

I seriously LMAO at the flaming toast @tweetyknicks‌.

So I decided against the Mickie D's because I've been doing good on my diet. I went to get a pedicure, guess who's sitting next to me. A woman with the most adorable 4 month old little girl.

I'm going home to drink after this!

dancerspose · August 2014

Given the second blow while trying to relax with a pedi I'd skip the wine when you get home and go straight for the tequila!

So sorry for the crappy day!

Pintobean39 · August 2014

@DaydreamSam‌ I'm scarred to try those shots I won't have a house left, I'll burn it down.

Sewfie · August 2014

I'm sorry you're day is sucking so bad! But it did remind me of the sneaky hate spiral...hopefully it will bring you some lols.

AnnaClaire256 · August 2014

Man o man! That sounds like a rough start. I support your McDonald's and TV night 100%!

One time I was cooking something on the stove and forgot to burner the burner off...then I took a glass casserole dish out of the oven and put it on the hot burner. I left the room to get something and heard a huge BOOM! That thing exploded! I had glass and chicken noodle casserole all over every inch of my kitchen!

** passess Pinto the Vodka (I drank all the wine)**

I once exploded the pressure cooker full of lentils. The thing that goes on the top was embedded in the ceiling and there was red lentil mush sprayed over the entire kitchen. Took days to scrub it all.

I burned pizza last week on the grill. I got sidetracked and it was a giant black hockey puck.

Step 1: go home. Step two: get a bottle of wine or hard liquor and chocolate. Step three: lie down with some trashy movies. Step four: do nothing else the rest of the day. It's the only way to fix the day, I assure you.

jessimi06 · August 2014

I'm sorry today was so rough

. I second going home and floating in the pool with a cocktail. If it makes you feel better, I have also blown up hard boiled eggs (I forgot about them). I didn't have a lid on and there was egg EVERYWHERE, even the ceiling. DH just shook his head at me lol.

Pintobean39 · August 2014

@kushie77‌ I'm terrified of pressure cookers and that's exactly the reason why.

First and last time I've ever used one. Lesson learned.

lebradford · August 2014

Man, fuck cooking and fuck wearing make-up too.

Please return to bed. Take vodka. There will be no need for anything to mix it with. Just drink it, as is. Preferably from the bottle.

gsancho · August 2014

I'm sorry! I hope the evening is much better. I think I explode eggs in the same manner about once a month. I was just talking to a co-worker about it yesterday, and she thought I was crazy.

BunnyBerry · August 2014

Aw, Pinto, I am so sorry. But that is also too funny! I think the key to remember here is that you looked great today.

@sewfie - That was so funny.

Hollowvic · August 2014

Omg, I laughed when reading your post, I know it's not funny and I've had mornings like that and I know at the time it's not funny, but it cracked me up. Sorry you had a shitty morning!!! As we say at work, it's going to be a control-alt-delete day!! Have some McDs and enjoy, you only live once.

Pintobean39 · August 2014

Actually the day has gotten better. Now, my house still smells like burnt toast with jelly on top. I turned on all my sentsy's to make it smell better. Of course my husband thinks it's funny as hell, which I guess it is now.

Were headed to a friends to have a glass or 2 or 3 of wine. I never got Mickie D's I'm saving my calories for wine because you know that's just more important in my book.

Got to say I love all the women on this board, y'all can bring a smile or a laugh even when you are having one shitty day. Thanks!!!!

theholmanherd · August 2014

I'm glad your day went uphill a little. Husbands can be great for making us see the lighter side of things. I know mine does :P

shirleymaeby · August 2014

God, I am sorry you had such a rough morning but I am happy your day got better.

Um, for real though...I had no idea you could even blow up a hard boiled egg until tonight. I don't think I've ever set anything in my kitchen on fire (thankfully) but I definitely left the oven on all night long after baking a dessert for a friend's dinner party. So I'm pretty lucky I didn't accidentally set my apartment on fire and crisp my dogs.
