When It Rains, It Pours

A cliche, I know. And I'm not just referring to the fact that it rained for the better part of the afternoon today. It's just Tuesday, but the week's been pretty shitty so far.

On Sunday night, my mom called at 3AM asking me how to change the channel on the TV. =_=
That wasn't too bad, except the call killed off the last 5% of power I had left in my cell. As a result, my morning alarm did not go off and I overslept by an hour.

Rolling into work an hour late is bad, but rolling into work late with a deflated tire is even worse. During my lunch break, I drove slowly into the nearest gas station and took care of my tire. Fortunately, the tire does not seem to be leaking anymore, but WTF? Why was the air gone? Tires are expensive man...

On top of being nervous the entire day, I also felt icky cuz I didn't shower that morning. Monday = sucky.

On Tuesday (today), I found that my alarm only went off once. It's supposed to go off like 3-4 times! MAYBE it did. But it sure as hell did not wake me up. As a result, I woke up at the time I usually leave the apartment. But fortunately, I was quick about my morning routine and was only 10 minutes late - which isn't even "late" since work starts within a 30-min window.

But my car troubles weren't over. Apparently, the battery in my car key is weak or something and refuses to open the doors. I will have to resort of manual entry, which isn't horrible, but damnit - another thing to take care of?

Factor in the fact that I have my official 3-month presentation to take care at the end of the week, and barely any time to "practice" for it due to travel this week - and it'll be a pretty rough week.

Even with all the shittiness, I don't even think my life is too shitty. I don't usually complain about the things life throws at me, but this had a different flavor to it. Dissatisfaction level = 7/10.

PS - To top off my the shittiness of my real life, my virtual life is also taking a hit. In Travian, an enemy alliance is most likely going to wipe out my original (thus my most sentimental) village. Lame. =[
