Hero Of The Day vs. Not My Day...

Sunday was a day for heroics. First, one of my roommates needed a ride to the mall to buy some black cross-trainers. I had decided to sleep in, so I had some time to kill before Media Fellowship, with my only necessity being laundry. Immediately after getting back from that trip, another roommate called me and needed me to save her as she was out of gas just a few blocks down the road. I just smiled and thought that I should show up in a cape, but I doubt she would understand. I ended the day with lunch and flirting with a pretty girl I met at the laundromat (alas, she had a boyfriend) before going to MFI and getting to emcee the first portion of introductions and prayer requests.

Today, a Tuesday, was something less of heroics and just simply not my day. During lunch, I was leaning back and reading a message on my iPhone when my napkin blew all the way across the patio! I guess I didn't need a napkin. I begin eating my Caesar salad and one of the prongs on my fork broke off! Now, this wasn't a flimsy plastic fork, but a heavy-duty variety and I haven't had problems with it at this place before. A few more bites later and not only does another prong break off in my mouth, but I bite that prong in half and spend the next twenty seconds digging the plastic out without being disgusting with my food. To make matters worse, both prongs were the middle prongs on the fork! Luckily, I was still able to eat my lunch (carefully) without too much of a problem.
