Cause you had a bad day...

Yes, I surely did, and this is how it went: Yesterday evening, Grace, my mom and I went to this meeting for an upcoming history class I'm taking. When the meeting was over at about 8:40, we got in the car and started it up. I felt it shaking and I was like,

"Uhh...that can't be good.."

"Oh goodness!" My mother cried, looking at the dashboard, "We're totally out of gas!" Grace quickly turned off the car to preserve the gas while we thought,

"Ok," My mom said, "Just start it again and go real slow. I think there's a gas station just down the hill." So Grace started the car...and it shuddered and conked out. Great. So here we were, stuck in a college parking lot with no gas, people who we didn't really know, and darkness settling in around us.

"Well, we should walk down the hill and see if they have a gas can." So we walked about two blocks down until the Mobil came into sight. Once we arrived, we asked the smiley young man if he had a gas can, and he informed us, with a smile, that no he had none. So we once again set off, this time walking a mile uphil to another gas station. On the way up, my mom decided to take off her shoes (cause they were apparently hurting her feet) which caused great discomfort with me and Grace. We told her the sidewalks were super dirty, but she didn't listen. Grace's frazzled nerves were set off once again, when I turned my head to look at some guys who had beeped at us. She said I was the perfect target for them, and I told her there was nothing wrong with looking to see who it was who was BEEPING AT YOU! *sigh*
Anyway, we reached the other gas station, and asked if they had anything. After the girl looked for about 5 or 10 minutes, she found this small, dinky gas can, and sold it to us for 10 dollars! What a rip-off! But we, being desperate people, took it, and made the mile trek back to our car.
Once there, we realized that we didn't know how to use the can, so it took us 20 minutes to actually figure it out, then pump the half gallon into the tank.
We finally were able to drive down the hill to the Mobil, fill our tank, and wash the disgusting smell of gasoline off our hands...all while getting attacked by Mayflies.

Hooray.


Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
You had a bad day
