Bad week...

Haven't been having a good week. It started with my videocamera; last
week I found a consistent error message on my CCD E:61:00, although I
didn't know it was an error message until I called up the tech support.
Had to send it in to the Sony Service Centre (fortunately it's not that
far from my house) and when I dug out the warranty, I found that the
warranty only covers labour charges up to 90 days, although parts, if
need to be replaced, are covered for a year.

Then my car overheated twice in three days which kept me topping its
water up. Remembering my father's reaction to the last time the car was
not working, I took it to the car service centre myself where they found
the water pump leaking (funny, my dad just repaired it a few months
back), so I had to get it changed.

And yesterday, when I wore my contact lenses, I found the left lens
irritating my eye and I had to take it out a few times to give it a good
rinse. And... it tore in my hands. It must have been already starting to
tear which was why it irritated my eye. It's only a disposable (phew!)
but it wasn't reaching the end of the month yet. Anyway, I was in school
when this happened and as I stared at the lens, all I could think of
was, "OK, I have class in half an hour, after which I have another
class... WHEN CAN I GO HOME TO GET MY GLASSES?!?!?!?!" To walk around
half-blind for a few hours is not a very comfortable idea, and it's very
disconcerting to have unfocused vision, with one eye seeing clearly and
the other not. I did manage to get a half-hour break after my first
one-hour class, during which I rushed home. I was already beginning to
get a headache from the odd vision.

I hope nothing else happens...

I end this entry with an excerpt from a song that fits my mood at the moment:

BAD DAY
Daniel Powter

Well you need a blue sky holiday
The point is they laugh at what you say
And I don't need no carryin' on

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

Sometimes the system goes on the blink
And the whole thing turns out wrong
You might not make it back and you know
That you could be well oh that strong
And I'm not wrong
