One Thing After Another: My Tuesday of Unrelenting Chaos

Ugh, seriously, what a day. It started out innocently enough, you know? Just another Tuesday. Then BAM! This crazy storm rolls through like it owns the place. Next thing I hear is this sickening crack, and I look outside to see a freaking tree limb the size of a small car lying in the yard. Look at the damage to my car from the storm! Awesome.

Of course, being the thoughtful guy I am, I go to check things out, and wouldn't you know it, the damn limb took out our TV cable. It was just dangling there, all pathetic and sparking a little. And then, because today apparently decided to go full-on disaster movie, some genius in a car must have snagged it because now the whole damn thing is ripped clean off the house. So, yeah, no internet until Friday. Fantastic. At least I can tether to my tablet, so the world hasn't completely ended, but still.
You'd think things couldn't get much worse, right? Wrong.
Holy. Freaking. Hell. It was like the apocalypse had hit the pizza place. Wall-to-wall people, phones ringing off the hook. We were so slammed, it wasn't even funny. And wouldn't you know it, classic Domino's move, some bonehead decided today was the perfect day to call out. Seriously? Short-staffed doesn't even begin to cover it.
And get this – half our delivery area is without power thanks to the storm, so guess what everyone with a working oven isn't doing? Cooking! Nope, they're all ordering pizza. So we're drowning in orders, running around like headless chickens, and I'm pretty sure I aged about ten years in the last three hours.
I swear, I'm about two more ridiculous things away from just walking out. Quitting has never looked so appealing. Maybe I'll just go live in a cave with my tablet until Friday when the internet comes back. At least the squirrels in a cave are probably less stressful than today has been. Crappy day doesn't even begin to cover it. This was an epic fail of a Tuesday.
