From Spilt Coffee to Sipped Champagne

This is a picture of how my day began: I awaken from a restless sleep during which I thought I was having a heart attack and thought I stopped breathing multiple times (but who doesn't?!?!) only to be greeted by NO SNOW outside and A GRASSHOPPER in my bedroom. While I am grumping about not getting a snow day, Price is trying to kill our little friend with a small cloth, so then I start grumping at him about his lack of grasshopper killing technique (In our apartment I kill them frequently and effectively.) Price leaves. I'm still watching the weather channel, holding out hope for a snow day as the names of closed schools scroll across the TV screen. "ECS... HUTCHI(N)SON... PRESBYTERIAN DAY SCHOOL, Clarksdale..." I have never even heard of a PDS in Clarksdale. So now I'm really mad and running late to PDS (Memphis). I can't get my new haircut to work properly so I throw on a headband. I fumble through my sock drawer unable to find my super warm socks and slam my thumb in the drawer so hard I start to cry. I proceed to forget to put on deodorant and then spill half my to-go cup of coffee on the floor. No time to clean it up. I run outside and find that my windshield is iced over. I run back inside and grab the first thing I can think of to scrape it. The spoon I ate my oatmeal with. I arrive on time by the skin of my teeth. I don't know that I smiled all day until I heard this conversation between two of the boys in my class:
Boy 1: "Did you know the movie Twilight is about kissing? I've seen it."
Boy 2: "Yeah, well, I've been to a wedding before."

Though today didn't begin ideally, I must say things are looking up. It's amazing how much better a bad day can become when Price gets home and we can relax together. Right now I'm sitting in my snuggie surrounded by candles in my cozy apartment, drinking champagne (on days like these that is TOTALLY acceptable), messing around on my computer while Price watches football. Things couldn't get much better. Fingers crossed there will be no "heart attacks" tonight.
