Worst Morning Ever!

This has been the worst morning ever and it's not even 10 o'clock yet!

Last night I went to bed with a purpose. That purpose was to go to work NOT looking like I just woke up from an all night bender. This is what I normally look like when I go to work despite my efforts to look decent which is annoying because I don't go on benders ever, I never have.

Anyway so last night I'm thinking I'd like to look decent at work so I hatched a plan. I'd have a shower before bed, to save time, put my hair in curlers and take some heels to work. My hair is the most boring hair ever so I thought some nice loose curls would look nice and I copied a similar outfit to one worn by character Blair Waldorf on the early season of Gossip Girl. So I did. I even painted my nails right before sleep so they'd look nice too and spent a very uncomfortable night wearing hair rollers.

My efforts were a complete waste of time. Firstly the humidity here means that my hair takes a full 16 hours to dry so when I got up this morning and took the rollers out my hair was still wet. Not damp. Wet. One brush and the night of uncomfortable sleeping was ruined.

Then I tried to dress and couldn't find part of my outfit I thought I had gotten ready in full the night before (I'd even ironed my skirt and shirt) and whilst looking for it I almost lost it entirely. I then did miss my train to work. I arrived at work late, hot, sweaty, cranky, not wearing makeup, and my hair looks like a damp rag. And the skirt and shirt I so carefully ironed were badly wrinkled on the packed and late train journey so I looked like I slept in my clothes. Plus my skirt kept riding up in the middle during my walk from the train station so I ended up looking like a hippopotamus or a size 22.

I'm done.

Over it.

Finished.

I'm so damn sick of making all this effort in the hopes of looking nice. I keep thinking that my life won't sux as much if I look better. If I'm thinner, if my hair is perfect, if my nails are neat and nicely painted then perhaps I'll have all the things everyone else has like a job I don't hate, money to go on holidays, friends who give a shit about me and a partner.

Later on that day...

So the day ended about as bad as it began. I got through my work day without any trouble but then left my phone at work and had to traipse all the way back to get it. Because there was no way I was going to wait until morning and then find out I'd left it on public transport...no way! I got my phone back thank goodness because my entire life is on there. Sometimes I kind of wish I was one of those people who could exist without technology but to be honest I'm as addicted as everyone else. I may not enjoy selfies or even know what the point of SnapChat is but I LOVE twitter and YouTube so I guess I'm stuck.

Anyway that is my day.

Open Book...now closing.
