WHAT AM I BEING PUNISHED FOR, UNIVERSE?
1) I had to get a taxi home from Marrickville last night because the bus timetable is a terrible lie and despite my showing up at 10:30 and there being buses scheduled for 10:38 and 11:08, NONE CAME.
2) Having gotten to sleep much later than I wanted because of the aforementioned transport dramas, I am in desperate need of coffee this morning. I made one cup. I poured milk into it. The milk was off (five days before the label claims it should be). I tipped the coffee out. I poured a new plunger, thinking I could run to the kitchens for milk. I then managed to tip the plunger over with my wrist, spilling coffee everywhere and necessitating a lengthy cleanup. Two day's worth of wonderful Toby's beans down the drain, quite literally.
Right, thought I, nobody can blame me for buying coffee this morning.
3) But, oh yeah, I have no money in my wallet.
Because I spent it all on a taxi.
FUCK. EVERYTHING.

I wish it was Sunday (oh-woe)
'Cause that's my Funday (oh-woe)
My I don't have to runday (oh)
It's just another manic Monday.
Have to catch an early train, got to be to work by nine
And if I had an air-o-plane, I still couldn't make it on time
'Cause it takes me so long just to figure out what I'm gonna wear
Blame it on the train but the boss is already there.

Sadly enough it's now 6pm and my mood has not improved. I want more than anything to spend the evening curled up in bed with potato chips and a Naomi Novik book, but we all know the likelihood of that being allowed to happen.

And then we went to put Lucy on a train (safe, right? Trains come, right?) AND THE 8:30 TRAIN DISAPPEARED ADN THEN THE 8:48 TRAIN DISAPPEARED. One turned up around 9, when none were scheduled. There had been a "signals failure", apparently.
WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY SUBURB?
