Murph where are you.

Have you ever had a really bad day? Well try a bad couple of days, because I swear Murphy hanging around me somewhere. Everything has been going wrong. Being me, I get sucked into others drama trying to help. Well I need to learn to stop because I just end up with the short end of the stick.

This week has been the worst, I got locked out which isn’t the least of it. From the little things like people stealing and eating my lunch, to bigger ones of friends and work drama it all goes wrong. I am working like crazy and being pulled in every which way and not because of my needs everyone else. The harder I try the more it seems to get messed up. There is a lot of crap on every which way that I DON’T want to get into it and won’t.

So today is a day off and I try to kick the bad mojo that has been following me around. It starts out by myself promising call my dentist to start on fixing my aching tooth. Naturally I get a call back right away. She is amazing Ann Donnelly, DDS in my hood on 2827 Franklin St. feel free to call her, I truly love her. Call her at 415- 776- 1900. Well she snuck me in and saw what is going on and recommended me to a specialist. I leave on happier note feeling like I am taking care of myself and my luck is turning. Right?

Wrong! I decide to walk to where I am pet sitting, and go to do a bit of retail therapy thinking my budget would be around $70 right? I go to Ambiance the “Best in the Bay” and had the WORST experience. I walked around and was looking taking my time. Down in the dumps so trying to smile and keep my spirits up… do I get a smile or a hello? NO! I came in here to spend money to help myself feel better and instead I walk out feeling worse. How is that possible? To go into a store and walk out feeling bad not because they don’t have the item in, because they ignored you. I actually was so mad I called up and talked to the manger of operations and yelped. She said she was sending me something for me to give them another shot. Let’s see what happens right?

Well I did go to another store and spent way more than $70 I meant to, this of course being because I was in such a dis-hearted mood due to the poor service at the store before. I ended up spending $200.. EEK! But I am feeling quite happy and everything was on sale which helps. This is regardless if my bracelet broke while in the shop sending beads everywhere. It’s more pathetic when you realize that was the first time wearing it out. I told you Murphy is following me.

The shop was great though, Toniya has great taste and really works with you. I told her I am wanting to keep on a budget and she went straight to her favorite pieces on the sale rack. She helped me pick out one seriously hot black punk rocker dress by Salvage which was 30% off (they are the only store in SF who sells it) It was. The next two items were 60% off and thus too good to pass up on. The dress is totally her, I would have never picked it. It is a seriously sweet and fitted white dress with butterflies on it. I know butterflies, really! Plus to walk out with two dresses, one black and one white and both totally represent that spectrums color. Oh I can’t wait to wear them. I also grabbed a top that is great for work or to go out it is just really fun. In such a bad mood I change into the shirt and leave feeling happier, satisfied.
