I knew in my gut, with an unshakeable conviction, that something was terribly wrong. An icy terror gripped me, and I couldn't shake the feeling that this was more than just a bad dream. My deepest anxieties were about to become my reality.
A Day I'd Like to Forget
It all started with my obnoxious phone ringing. I jumped out of bed and rolled over, but somehow only managed to sleep for another five minutes. I spilled coffee on my cat/the dog/a pile of laundry and knew right then that this day was going to be terrible.

The evening just felt like forever.
I got stuck in the rain and someone stole my wallet. Finally, I wanted to cry and just ordered pizza.
