I'm having one of "those" days

Oh well, things are not going my way today.

First off, I woke up late with a cold and a headache with my wife still asleep (she's pregnant so I can't blame her). I had to scramble out of bed, get some water heated for the wife and leave the house without breakfast cause were going to be late.

Then since were already late ... we have to face the normal morning traffic. It became intolerable because my stomach kept reminding me that the only breakfast that I had that morning was the toothpaste I accidentally swallowed.

OK, I've dropped off my wife in Manila who immediately left me for Deli France. She loves me but its not advisable to be in between a pregnant woman and breakfast.

So while driving along Buendia Avenue, I was directly behind a car who accidentally hit a bicycled messenger. Unfortunately, I was hemmed in and the MMDA who responded to the accident flagged me down to actually asked me what I saw of the accident. OK, nobody was really hurt but the bicycle was damaged, the messenger was angry and the woman driver looked terrified and close to tears.


Basement Parking Posted by Picasa

OK, I'm now in the office building to find out that there are NO more available parking slots. I was driving around for 15 minutes from basement 4 to basement 7 (with a few other lost souls) hoping to be lucky enough to spot a vehicle exiting the parking area. In the end, I decided to just park the car beside a wall.

The funny thing is, after parking besides the wall, some of the drivers who were cruising the basement parking also copied my parking style. :D

Oh well ... I hope Murphy's on vacation today otherwise I'm fracked!
