Today Is Not A Good Day

I had one of those moments where everything seemed perfect. There were rays of sunlight filtering gently through the trees and birds chirping and crunchy leaves to step on, even. This moment of divine happiness occurred when I walked into the Burton-Judson courtyard and saw all the fall colors and blue sky and realized that while my econ midterm had been horrendous, it hadn't killed me.

But then somebody looked down from that cloudless sky and said, "No no no! You are mistaken! Today is going to be a shitty day just like every other!"

And just to make this fact inescapably clear to me, one of the so-called chirping birds flutters by, and takes a shit on my forehead. Today is no longer a good day.
