I forgot my travel mug at work yesterday afternoon so I didn't have it this morning. That means I had to buy coffee on my way to work, except that I got to the coffee shop and realized I had no cash on me.

So I left without coffee and went to work (getting there late now) -- still no coffee

I grabbed my mug from my desk and went to the kitchen. On the way there, I bumped into my boss (literally) and dropped my mug on the ground. There's now a chip in it

I washed the mug in the sink and set it on the hi-tech 15 button, science-fiction coffee maker. When my mug is full the machine says it's only 60% finished making my beverage but it isn't pouring any more coffee so I took my mug....and then it started to expel coffee all over the floor

I cleaned it up with the only thing we have in the kitchen, paper towels.

I had to email the office services person and apologize for being the asshole who just made the floor all sticky.

Finally, at my desk. I started writing this note.

I took a sip of coffee and grimace. It's pretty much just water because apparently all the "coffee" from the machine was in the part that ended up on the floor.

On my way back to the kitchen.

It's going to be one of those days. How's YOUR day coming along?
