Bluck!

Remember this book? Well today it needs to be called Brooke and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day.

I guess it really is not THAT bad. I think my extreme lack of sleep this week is making it worse. But you know, who cares if you don't get home til 10 at night and still need to shower, you HAVE to watch the finale of So You Think You Can Dance. (P.S. I LOVE Jeanine. Yup.)

Anyways, back to the crappy day. Let's see......

First off, its Friday. Fridays at work are SLOW!!!!! Pretty much no one works and those that do are gone by noon. But I GET to stay til 4:30.

Second, (and most importantly) I lost Eric's birth certificate. Yup. Don't know where it is. Normally this might not be a huge problem but seeing how he has to have it faxed in TODAY or else he will not get a certain interview, it sucks. Thanks to the state of Utah, all government offices are closed on Friday so I can't get a copy of it. ANYWHERE. Believe me I tried. I called the hospital, the school district, the school he is currently going to, nothin. So thanks to me, he may not get this interview or else may have to wait a MONTH to try again.

Third, it is the Cache County Fair. Most people like fairs. But when your family is in the "business", you don't usually get to enjoy them. So yesterday, today and tomorrow, you will find us working at the fair. I know it is money, and I am very grateful for it, but working all day at your regular job and then going to the fair til 10 o'clock or so at night, does not make for a happy Brooke.

This really is not meant to be a "poor me" post. I just want to attempt to make myself feel better. If we can just get a copy of his birth certificate, I will be ALMOST all better. I have started crying like 3 times at work about it. ha ha. Don't laugh. It is not funny. :)

Oh yeah, and someone put the leftover smoked, hamburgers from the company BBQ in the fridge UNCOVERED and now EVERYTHING in the fridge and freezer has a lovely "smokey" flavor added to it. Yum! ha ha

There. All better. Well, hopefully.

I'm sorry! I hate when everything's happens at once, and it always seems like it! It was fun to see you at the fair, and I had no idea you'd had such a bad day. You happy and cheerful as ever!! And you look GREAT!!

Oh Brooke, your so cute! That sucks you had such a bad day. What does your family do at the fair? I missed it this year. I love all the white trash people there... I think that's the best part!
