"He's the devil in disguise, a snake with blue eyes, and he only comes out at night..."

So today has pretty much been the day from Hades. I slept right through my alarm and was late for work. I've done this a lot, so I lied and told the supervisor that my truck had died. I feel awful about it, but I don't do well under pressure.

As I've said, I work at the bookstore on campus, and they give their employees free shirts and assign us certain ones to wear during the first week. Free bookstore clothing, great, right? Not today. Our Thursday shirt is red, with those really awful light brown/dark brown buttons, it's 100% cotton and long-sleeved so I'm roasting and itching.

Spanish class wasn't too bad, but then I had 45 minutes to find my backpack and get to work. No big deal, except it's raining and cold outside(even though it's hot in the building where I work. Go figure.) so I take the shuttle. A little before 11:00(aka, when everyone REALLY needs to get to class), the shuttle driver drives down to the transit station(way out of the way of the route) and switches with another driver. When we finally got to my dorm, I went to the far end of the parking lot to my truck(no backpack) and went to my room(still no backpack). The only other thing I did last night after I left my boyfriend's(when I know I had it) was ride the shuttle, since one of my friends drives. I went to the campus police - no backpack. So I'm hoping that since my friend is new, he grabbed it and just didn't know the right way to report it, or grabbed it since he knew it was mine and took it home. If not, someone stole it :( And I'll have to buy all the lost textbooks and rent new ones.

After all that, I had another shift at work, and was late AGAIN because of all the running around. Then I've got half an hour before my organic lab, the bane of my existence(I hate organic lab).

I'll let you know how all this turns out. Basically, life sucks today. But here are a few things good that happened(I'll try to come up with five):

1) My roommate's alarm did go off, right before I had to be at work. If not for that, I would have probably slept through my first shift and possibly my first class.
2) We drew for presentation dates in Spanish today, and Cindy and I are not first. We're almost exactly in the middle, which in my opinion is the best place to be. We're presenting sometime in early March.
3) I had a Mountain Dew before Spanish.
4) Carrie Underwood's song Cowboy Casanova just came on the radio. That's my fave song right now.
5) Amanda, my coworker for this shift, has been super awesome about taking care of everything since I'm so stressed. All my coworkers are like that.
