Some days are a waste of makeup.

Today was just one of those days. The kind of day where you things just seem to get worse as time goes on. To sum it up, I made stupid mistakes that culminated to my coworker having to redo her experiment. It was a n00b mistake, and one that I should never have made. To make matters worse, the whole situation put me in a funk for the rest of the day, and I just couldn't get my head back in the game. More stupid mistakes arose and pretty soon replacements had to be called, and I was officially sidelined. I guess the stars just weren't aligned in my favor. It happens to everyone, or so I was told repeatedly by anyone who could see that I was distressed. But as Churchill once said, "If you're going through Hell, keep going." In case that quote was too inspirational, how about one from Ani Difranco. "Maybe you don't like your job, maybe you didn't get enough sleep. Well nobody likes their job, and nobody gets enough sleep.  Maybe you just had the worst day of your life, but you know, there's no escape, there's no excuses. Just suck it up and be nice." Imagine that quote with a cute picture of a kitten doing chinups. Awesome.

EDIT 9/19:

Looks like yall won't have to imagine the kitten after all.  Behold the awesomeness.  Thanks Muellerette for the pic!
