An invisible day is a day where and when everything you try to do goes wrong,everything and everyone seems to get in your way,all your plans go
wrong,nothing ever fits and nothing wants to work right,like your invisible...
They happen to me a lot and they seem to be increasing in frequency more and more...
Years ago,i was telling a guy at work how everything seemed to be going wrong for me that day and he said,your having whats called an invisible day
and thats the first time i ever heard the term...
Heres an example of an invisible day for me...
I wake up late for work,because the alarm clock that i was sure i set the night before,was never set at all...
So i jump out of bed and while heading for the shower,thats being used,of course,i stub my toe...
After finally obtaining access to the shower,where an empty bottle of shampoo is waiting just for me...
i get out,dry off and grab my pants and find out that our heavily shedding cat decided to use them for a bed the night before...
Next i hastily pick up my shoes and put the right one on my left foot and the left one on my right foot...
Then i try to make some toast,that burns,while i'm busy looking for a container of butter that ends up being empty and still in the fridge...
I finally get outside the door and into my car and realize my keys are still in the house...
So i go to the front door and realize its locked and my house key is on my key chain, inside the house...
After solving that issue,i'm back in my car and backing up to the street and lo and behold,theres a car coming down the street and another and another
and another...
Finally i'm driving down the street and i swerve to the left to avoid a pot hole,only to drive right into a larger one...
Then,of course,all the way to work,at every single intersection i reach,i'm staring at a red light,never a green one,not even once...
Now i'm at work and as my boss says,your late and i say,no kidding...
I discover that empty pocket feeling and find out that those darn keys of mine are now locked in my car...
I reach for my cell phone to call for someone to unlock my car and it goes flying out of my hand and breaks on the floor...
All morning and afternoon,everything i touch is either spilled,dropped or knocked over...
Every doorway i try and walk through there just happens to be someone colliding into me,every single doorway, every single time...
Now the work day is over and im trying to drive home and theres those red lights again,staring at me, mocking me,daring me to run one of them and get
a ticket...
Further down the street and almost home,a person in a car does run a red light and almost slams right into me...
After avoiding that disaster,right away another person in another car,backs out of their driveway, without stopping and i almost get hit again...
Now i'm driving down my street,playing dodge ball with those pot holes again,as usual and home is in sight...
I park the car,get out and walk right into a skunk that just happens to be right there,as if it was intentionally waiting just for me...
Without getting sprayed,i get into the house and turn on the light,as the bulb blows out...
Now the light is fixed and there on the table is my car insurance bill,that i forgot to pay on time,glaring at me and i swear i can almost hear it
laughing...
Thats an invisible day...Almost like i was never there...Like i was invisible
