I have my period and have spent the day with a headache

[conuly]

This would normally be the very cap of my awful day, but also the outlet for plumbing to the entire house seems to have broken and is flooding the basement and our fridge broke entirely and isn't working and we had to throw out a lot of food.

I do not like this day and would like to submit a complaint.

You are 100% right. This is a day that needs a complete tear-down and do-over. Very very very sorry this all has happened right now.

Ye fishes and little gods!

That would be a disaster of a day even without the headache... :(

Agree I don't like today either, although admittedly mine wasn't quite as bad as yours. Here's a link to a song - it made me feel better: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hyk-Vdd_Qrk

My day sucked, too - and that's without the Aunt Flo visit or any of her drama, for once *knocks wood* - what is it about today but uh, no: your fridge, the food, the plumbing, the basement, and her all at once...that many things would eventually send me off to bed unable to can-even. That is a bit much. All the sympathies.

Shit! I'm so sorry!

Sounds like a lot of Unpleasant to be crammed into a single day.

[conuly]

Mmm. And because the headache came before any of it I was completely zonked and largely unable to help with any practicalities all day, so much kudos to A who handled most of it.

If it had hit in the morning I would've been able to push through long enough to move the food (or toss out what shouldn't be saved), run a small load to the laundromat, and so on.

[conuly]

It could be worse - at least I put in a grocery order for delivery *tomorrow* and had not just filled the fridge *yesterday*!

[conuly]

Shit is exactly right.

[conuly]

It's honestly more than I like crammed into a single month.

[conuly]

Thanks.

[marahmarie]

But can you still cancel the order? Assuming the fridge won't be fixed before the delivery arrives?

[marahmarie]

Or stick most (if not all of) the cold stuff in your deep freezer (you have one, I think)?

[conuly]

It's technically a two family house, although we only have one working bathroom and stove. But we *do* have a second fridge, so we just moved all the stuff to save downstairs. It's a huge hassle because of course we still *cook* upstairs, but.

[darkoshi]

That's a lot more difficulty than anyone should have to deal with in one day.

[pauamma]

Indeed. (I've been known to say "I'm having a bad week today" in similar circumstances.)
