Bad Day (Indicators)

How to Tell You are About to Have a Bad Day:

• When you arrive at work, your boss bounces up to you and exclaims: “I got a great idea last night while binge-watching Star Trek.  This is going to change everything!”
• Power to your house drops out the instant you reach out to turn on the coffee maker.
• Your ancestry search results suggest you may be the missing link in evolution.
• Your credit card company sends a text to inform you they froze your card following a two-thousand-dollar transaction in Guatemala immediately followed by a one-thousand-dollar purchase in Ohio.
• You wake with the song “Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini” stuck in your head.
