An Alexander Day

This has been a hell of a day.
I really think the hell of today can be summed up in one one-minute snippet of today.
I ordered pizza for dinner at Jen's insistence because really, I was too tired and fried to figure out actual food. So the pizza arrives and I get a piece out for Punk and go to get her a cup of milk. I open the dishwasher (clean) to let the dishes dry and get a cup for her and a glass for me. I put the cup and glass on the counter, and open the fridge to get the milk. I pour the milk and put it back in the fridge. The action of closing the fridge door somehow topples over a Stain Stick that is on top of the fridge, which falls over the side, and of course DIRECTLY hits my glass, which falls into the dishwasher and shatters into many pieces all over my clean dishes. The Stain Stick, having bounced off the glass, then hits the cup of milk, knocking it over onto the counter, all over the dishes, and onto the kitchen floor where it promptly attracts cats. So in a split second, I am now fishing glass out of the dishwasher and the floor, wiping up the counter and floor, shooing cats, re-running the dishwasher on the rinse cycle, and pouring yet another cup of milk.
I never got myself a drink. It was just too much effort.
