What was I saying about perspective?

I lost my wallet today.

Bummer.

I lost everything inside my wallet: checkbook, credit cards, debit card, license, social security card, family pictures, business cards, foreign money, un-deposited checks, etc.

Bummer.

Someone hit my roommates car today.

Bummer.

I missed class today because I was franticly looking for my lost wallet.

Bummer.

I didn't go running this morning because I didn't wake up in time.

Bummer.

I was very late for work because, again, I was looking for my wallet.

Bummer.

But...

At least everything in my wallet can be replaced; my roommates car will most likely be just fine once she contacts the person who accidently hit it; my professor is willing to meet with me to go over what I missed; I can still go running before bed time; and, there was birthday cake and ice cream sitting on the desk at work.

So, I guess I haven't had the worst day ever. Perspective, right? (that's what I have to keep telling myself).

Happy Friday! Thankgoodness for a three-day weekend...
