One of Those Days...

It all started out well...got up, did my Biggest Loser workout, did some extra time on the elliptical while watching Smallville--I was feelin' GREAT! Went to Best Buy, and Night at the Museum was only $7.99, so I snagged that up. I was so excited to make Indian feast and watch said Ben Stiller family friendly flick...then it all went to H-E-Double Hockey Sticks.

The rain, rain, rain came down, down, down...

  • Street completely flooded--water-up-to-my-knees-flooded. Called the cops three times and left irate message on public works answering machine...I'm sure that'll help us.
  • Water seeping into basement faster than we can get it out--another three inches easy.
  • Street still flooding and now water is leaking through basement windows. And my tomato plants, which were thriving, are completely under water.
  • Now sewage in the basement? It definitely smells, and not like roses.
  • Rain finally stops...water finally pretty much cleared from basement (though we could've used the help of the mop squad above).
  • No homemade Indian, called in Mexican instead, and we still get to watch NATM...or do we???
  • The frickin' disc doesn't work!!!
  • And, I didn't get extra salsa with my Mexican I ordered
  • AND, more rain expected at 4 a.m. I'm so nervous I don't think I can sleep.

I thought the worst days were supposed to be during the school year. At least the Cubbies won.
