    Seriously. My dad emailed me, he had a crap day. My sister emailed, she had a crappier day. DH came home in a foul mood, berated someone on the phone before dinner, was in an even crappier mood after that, and then took it out on me and picked a fight while trying to help me put wallpaper on my bookcase (which turned into a huge disaster because he wouldn't listen to me and now I might just have $40 of ruined wallpaper, awesome). So now he's in bed, I'm pissed off and likely going to sleep on the couch tonight because the man doesn't know when to admit he's been an ass and apologize and I really don't feel like being in bed with him. My day was fine but apparently everyone else's crappy Monday needed to collide with me. What the heck is up with today!??!?!

    Mine was shitty too. I think it's the "Monday-after-a-holiday-weekend" syndrome.

    Hope your DH wakes up in a better mood and apologizes :(

    I'm sorry everyone's had a bad day!  I'm not in a crappy mood but I think I pulled my groin muscle because it hurts like crazy.

    No kidding! I can't believe what a jerk DH just was to me! He said I was being snarky to him, and I was explaining why I wanted to do something a particular way, not being rude, so apparently that gives him an excuse to just be downright mean?! Wtf?! I'm not okay with being the brunt of someone else's shit day. friggin jerk.

    vent done. LOL!

    Not a bad day but I felt that way this weekend. I was sick of everyone, including DH who at the time was being a complete ass about stuff and I broke down and about gave up. But I did get sick today, flu like, so maybe life is biting me in the bum for being a B***h this we?

    @bakerella: I think it's because that's a "manly" thing (kind of home improvement -ish) and you, a WOMAN, were telling him he was doing it wrong / suggesting a different way... my DH couldn't figure out how to put our crib together and when I did it in under an hour (and 7 months pregnant) he got in a pretty shitty mood too, lol.

    Hope tomorrow's a better day for you and your DH!

    I woke up to a $55 street sweeping ticket and I've felt blah and headachey pretty much all day (with the exeption of my brief taco bell euphoria that I posted about earlier... haha) - so yeah, maybe it's just one of those Mondays.

    I didn't have a crappy day, but I'm hormonal, a day late, and snarky as heck. I need to get a grip.

    Vent over.

    @firsttimemom: Add to the fact that he's a contractor and you've got a recipe for disaster. Worst part is when he told me he had literally done what I was doing earlier today. Halfway through he admits HE didn't do it, his guys did and he stopped by the job site and it looked good. Wtf?! That's not doing it yourself!!! That's not proof you know how to do this any better than me!!!! GRRRR!!! Literally, I have to start over tomorrow, but now I don't have an extra hand to smooth out the paper or flip over the damn unit. I'm so frustrated.

    Way to go on your crib! Let me guess, you used these little pieces of paper called "instructions" and your DH didn't? Lol :P

    @melodicsighs1: Street sweeping ticket?! What the heck is that?! I have to admit, I've had a headache on and off for 2 days now. I've just been attributing it to the weather.

    @JeffsWifey: Awww thanks hon. Being hormonal sucks. You know you're being emotional for no reason but you can't stop it and it's SO frustrating!!! The best is when you just burst out with "I HAVE PMS JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!!!!!!!!!"

    @MissAsB: Woah that's quite a throw :P

    I'm seriously thinking about eating some cake just to end my day on a high note....

Right on the money, it would be too easy for them to have a step-by-step guide, now wouldn't it?!

    @trugem: If I wake him up, now hes just going to be an angry sleep jerk, not just an angry jerk, lol! Whatever. The man can sleep when he's angry, I've learned to live with it. We don't fight often, but when he picks a fight he has a habit of doing it in a spectacular way that leaves me with my jaw on the ground sometimes. He's the nicest most genuine guy, so when he's mean it just feels doubly as bad as it is I think from the contrast of it all. Whatever. Now I'm getting too sleepy to follow through with my resolve to sleep on the couch. I might go to bed....

    @bakerella: All of the urban neighborhoods around here have signs posted that you cannot park on one side of the street between certain hours on certain days so they can bring a street sweeper through. It knocks out a good half of our parking every other Monday and Tuesday (one day for each side) and doesn't even get the street any cleaner than it started out as - I'm pretty sure it's just an excuse to give out more parking tickets.

    @HappilyEverAfter54: Me too! Although I don't see how it could get worse from the sounds of it for most people! LOL!

    @trugem: Definitely not. You ever heard the phrase "Don't poke a sleeping bear"? That's my husband when he's grouchy. LOL!! Worst part is that I could see it coming when he came home. I knew he was going to pick a fight somehow.

    And thanks for the title, though it's one I'd gladly give to another. Ugh. For real. Everything is up in the air until Thurs. I should just skip class all week and eat icecream in preparation for the crappiness I'll be feeling in a few days. Grrr.

    My day has been so-so, I just got back from a month visit with my FI so I am feeling sad and missing him in general.  But my family is really stressing me out and a family friend passed away recently so the mood in the house is sad mixed with stressed.  And I really want to raid with my guild on WoW but I haven't started my job so therefore have no money and can't pay my monthly subscription. *sigh*  I really could use the distraction!

    @JediAshley: :-( Sorry about the loss of your family friend. And I understand how sucky the first night away from your SO is. I always get crappy sleep w/o him, compounding my already cruddy mood. *hugs to you*

    @bakerella: so sorry your day sucked!  Mine did too!!!  I was stuck at school all day, haven't taken a break.  MY grandfather has bronchitis and an anuryism (spelling?) on his aorta (found this out last night after he went to the ER), my mom just got diagnosed with cancer for the second time in 3 years (found this out late last week but they haven't got the tests back yet), it's PMS week, my back is killing me, my grandmother has bone cancer and isn't doing well.  It's like every day I just spend praying I don't get one of those bad phone calls and that is stressful.  Top it off with law school, work and getting ready for the bar exam.  I just might not make it!

    @MrsCoachBtoBee: Oh man. That's all just awful. I'm so sorry!!!! (((((hugs))))) I hope your grandparents and mom are okay. It sounds like you come from a family of fighters though. My grandmother had a brain aneurysm nearly 20 years ago that she somehow survived. She lost her filter for a good while, but she's still kickin' today! Sending lots of love and happy thoughts to you and your family hon.

    @MrsCoachBtoBee: I'd like to say yes, but she just got meaner, lol!! My other grandma was the storybook grandma, the one that had the aneurysm was the one that made me cry all the time (both before and after) :P   Poor lady! I hate to say it, but she's pretty deep in Alzheimers now and it's the happiest I've ever seen her. She sits and hums and sings and talks about the old war days, she's very happy (and perhaps medicated...). No more hurled insults! But her resolve is strong, she made it through brain surgery, and she's physically better than I've seen her in years right now even if mentally she's in another place. The body is a bizarre thing to watch as it ages...

    @MrsCoachBtoBee: Meh, we made it through it. It's just how she was, like it or not, lol! She could also be very well intentioned and generous, but she didn't always know that sometimes even saying something with good intentions could be hurtful (there's that loss of filter part). We just dealt with it ;) Thankfully my grandpa is pretty much the most awesome grandpa ever, so we got lots of counterbalance with him!

    My day yesterday was awful, major anxiety, boss in the hospital after an aneurysm and stroke over the weekend (I guess I shouldn't complain about my shitty day huh?), people all around me had shitty days. My brother in law's sister (confusing I know) had a shitty day at work and got in a car accident on her way home. Went to the store to pick up a frozen pizza and bought fruit bars instead of ice cream :( but then put on my sweats and climbed into bed with DH and the dog and life got much better. Feeling much better today too although so very concerned about my boss.

    I was in a good mood and then had a crappy call night anyway.  I admitted 15 kids to the hospital and sent 2 to the PICU.  And it's not even high season.  Now I should sleep since I haven't since 7 am Monday morning!
