I got home and remembered I forget to get the $5 Laura left me for the breakfast burrito we always get at first break. I found that, after looking for a little while, and then I remembered I was supposed to bring some of the leftover pizza for lunch. I opened the fridge and found that the pizza was soggy because some water had leaked on it. I HATE it when that happens! I was already in a rush and this didn't help. It was enough to make me pound the foil covering the pizza 5 times as hard as I could, effectively smashing it. I looked all over for my wallet to no avail. I was going to be late to work and I didn't have time to go to the ATM to get the $10 I owed Marty and said I would pay him yesterday. I also didn't have my wallet.

I drove to work and checked Laura's vehicle in the parking lot. Ah, I had left my wallet in there. At least I had my wallet. I was still cranky. I was kinda short with people and just had this unpleasant look on my face. Marty said I had a really negative attitude and he said he liked seeing me expressing myself for a change. I realized I had forgotten my Ninja book in my rush and that made it even worse. I had a slight headache as well.

After work, I decided it was definitely a day to spend some time to myself doing something enjoyable, and nothing works better for me than watching a movie in the theaters. Laura was going to hang out with her friends and I was supposed to hang out with my family because it was Ben's birthday. They went to Wednesday night church first, though. I looked through the movies and picked the second Ice Age one since I had seen the other ones that I wanted to see more.

I ended up getting there without enough time to eat something first, so I was a little late. I bought my tickets and sat down. I could only watch 20 minutes of it when I walked out because I couldn't watch it anymore. It was just too stupid. None of them reacted in realistic ways and everything they said was so predictable and cliche. It was just too much. My most dependable source of making me feel better had made my day worse.

I found out that the present I bought for Serena (Laura's friend) had come in the mail. I didn't get it in time for her birthday, so I was going to give it to her when I got it. Both she and her sister, Jamie, are huge Star Wars fans and I got her the Limited Collector's Edition of the Original Trilogy Star Wars Monopoly. It's a pretty rare game. I called Laura and asked when she was leaving. She said she was leaving soon. When I said I wanted to come by and give her the present while she was still there, she said it wouldn't work because she wanted to be back home by 9 to shower and it was already 8 and it would take me about an hour's drive to go home and go back up there. Well, I tried to make it anyway and ended up getting there long after Laura left. Jamie and Serena had gone to eat, so there was no one there. I was disappointed that I didn't make it before Laura left, even though I sped quite a bit. To make matters worse, when Jamie and Serena came back home and I gave Serena her present, neither of them seemed very appreciative of it. Serena said she liked it and thanked me a few times, but there was no enthusiasm or excitement in her voice.

I went home feeling depressed. What a drag the day was.
