Gah ... today was just one of those days.
I just could not keep my head above water: wave after wave just kept coming and swamping me.
It started out wonderfully anyway with a guy who came in and berated and scolded me for awhile. It doesn't happen every day but it happens often enough that I've learned just to smile and stare back at them. Drives 'em crazy. He was rude and loud enough and the situation was escalating enough that one of my buddies came over to stand near my desk just in case extreme measures were needed. I told her I figured between the two of us, we could have taken him. Glad it didn't come to that, but it was nice to know she had my back.
Then more bad news came down in the afternoon and it just added to the joyfulness of a crummy day.
But at my good friend, Annie, always says, "Tomorrow, tomorrow, I love ya, tomorrow, you're only a day away." And my good friend, Scarlett O'Hara, always says, "Tomorrow is another day." With friends like those, I can't ask for anything else.

Antelopes are missionaries,
Pigeons plot in secrecy,
And hamsters turn on frequently
