The Week From Hell

It has been a rather trying four days for me. Since Saturday i have:

1) Ripped my knee open like you would not believe. My own clumsy fault however it's quite bad and rather sore.

2) Had a kitchen fire. I was boiling water and almost left the room while i waited but thank goodness i did not. I look at the burner and see a flame under my pot so i pull the pot away and whoosh, more flames so i turn off the burner. Next of course i blow on it (i watch too much survivor and should realize this is a way to make the fire grow, which it did). Finally i remember the fire marshall from my grade 5 class and throw a pot lid over it. I wait a few seconds and lift it to even more flames. I throw it back down and wait a minute wondering how i'm going to call 911 and grab bunny at the same time, however this time the lid did the trick and it was out. Of course the house reeked of smoke and it turns out it was not at all my fault. Someone else had cooked before me and left grease in the holder under the burner and it caught fire. Of course they had no idea it was there.

3) I was leaving for work on Tuesday, went to pick something up off the floor and BAM pinched my Sciatica Nerve. I've been off work and on muscle relaxants ever since. Not good at all, it hurts to walk or get out of bed, or cough.

4) Got the results back from the doctor and have to go for treatment. I'm assuming the cells were pre cancerous and they have to freeze them...ewe. Then they fall off like scabs, how disgusting. I'm going after my trip as apparently stuff oozes out and would most likely show through my khaki attire :P

5) I also had a bit of a fiasco trying to get some bloody pictures developed. They have been a thorn in my side for the past few weeks and finally I was able to deal with them this evening. Thanks LD!! Oh and a shopping cart somehow managed to slam into my car as we were leaving the store.

I've been a bit of an emotional wreck all week and had quite the cry today, it was very cathartic. So needless to say i am VERY much looking forward to the weekend where i can just relax and have a good time. Any funny jokes that will cheer me up until then?

A man was mowing his lawn when he heard his neighbor, who happened to be a blonde, come out of her house. She opened her mailbox, looked inside and slammed it shut. She stomped her foot and went back inside. The man thought ''how weird.''
A few minutes passed and sure enough, the blonde came out of her house again, checked her mail box, stamped her foot and went back inside. The man stopped mowing and checked her mailbox to see what was so wrong with it. After seeing nothing, he went back to mowing just shrugging his shoulders.

As soon as he heard her coming out again, he shut off his mowing machine and went up to her. ''What in the world are you doing, coming out here every five minutes?''

The blonde looked up at the man and said, ''Well, you see, there's this little voice in my house that keeps on saying, 'You've got mail,' but when I come out here to check, I don't have any.''

Awhhh miss ash, little buddy! Sorry to hear about your week. Come by my blog, my latest post will hopefully cheer you up while asking you to be creative!

GEEEZ I sound like one of those spam blogs.

I have a really bad joke -- would that work?

How do you catch a unique rabbit?

You 'neak up on him. (during the second part of the joke you have to do this little hopping motion for added effect).

Oh, but I am so sorry that you're having such a bad week. It REALLY sounds like a bad one too. I hope things get better soon!

I've got a joke, but it's not very good (although it vaguely fits with theme of your week).

HOw do porcupines make love? - Very Carefully.

Not very funny, but I hope you've got your run of bad luck behind you and that things are starting to look up.

Good and bad stuff tends to come in waves for whatever reason.

Oh, uh, actually never mind. When we go to the game park, if we get attacked by lions I need someone else to be the poor slob who runs slower than me. When I went to Banff with the BF, I had a plan that if we got attacked by bears, that I'd trip him and then run away.

Yrautca, cute joke!!

Rawbean, i did and put a rather funny caption if i do say so myself.

SS...groan....but thanks LOL.

2DP, i agree and always thought that things came in 3's...though i seem to count more. Hopefully things will turn around.

Oh Jennifer, always the caring soul, thinking about others lmao. It amazes me that you are not single :P

Lindsey said...

Awwww. Ash I'm so sorry you're having a shitty week. Lord...I think I'd be crying if even ONE of those happened to me.

On plus side...great excuse no to have to worry about results for TBL. :o) Mine is just laziness.

Princess Pessimism said...

OH MY GOD....your results... :(

Jennifer said...

It's 'cause I found someone just as stubborn, selfish, chubby, ornery and irredeemable as myself.
I don't know if there's anyone out there as lazy, fat and sexually perverse as you, but if there is, they should send an email and be a date on the 5 date challenge.
