Not Pleased...
If yesterday went splendidly, then today felt like torment-so to speak.
After waking up around 8:30, nearly 9:00, I realized I had overslept-something I enjoy, but not when it gets in between me having to set up for a wake following a funeral that will start promptly at 11:00 AM. (The wake; the funeral, I assume, will be at either 9:00 or 10:00.)
Setting up for the wake means I get an extra day of work, meaning I get paid extra. I also have to set things up for a reception following a wedding that will take place on Saturday. (Though, I suppose I could just leave the set up the same as I had it set up today and just take out the trash like usual.)
Anyway, while finishing with my set up earlier, I accidentally banged my middle fingernail against a pipe. That cause led to the effect of blood pouring out almost instantly from my finger. Nevertheless, I was furious with myself for allowing that to happen, even if it was a simple mistake. I wasn't anywhere near any band-aids at the time, so I had to use some paper towels from the bathroom in order to stop the flow of blood. I was successful in doing so, and I have the dried blood on my finger to show for it. Ick and ew.
To sour my mood even more, I read something yesterday evening, and upon doing so...it left a feeling of despair, loneliness and pain within my heart. Those emotions haven't changed or left since then.
The only good thing that happened to me today-besides hanging out with some friends-was seeing the season premiere of Smallville. Done quite well, and I liked how they remembered the late Sam Loeb, son of Jeph Loeb, who is the current writer for the latest Supergirl book and Superman/Batman. (He's currently writing his final arc on the latter, and will focus on Supergirl following Superman/Batman #25, I believe. I figure someone else will pick up where he left off, hopefully.)
The quote for this evening comes from one of my back issues.
