Eris is a MOTHERFUCKING BITCH. 
Or the fairies are. Or the Grand Sense of Humor that Rules the Universe. Somebody thinks I'm funny.
Since wandering into the Discordian pie-stand, I have observed the following:
-Weird shit happening at work: My punch-card (and no one else's) apparently stolen from the rack (and never found). Bizarre complaints from parents over paperwork that was filled out correctly. Other stuff I probably haven't had the time to notice because I work with kindergarteners.
-Increase in the number of sketch-comedy like bad mornings (ripped stockings, deodorant stains, general increase in clumsiness and forgetfulness).
-Electronics going more haywire than usual: for example, my computer apparently decided to SPONTANEOUSLY INSTALL the Korean character font I'd been trying to activate for weeks, and I don't think there was any kind of automated system update preceding it. My iPod, which was functioning reasonably well last week, turned up a black screen this morning and is to all appearances dead-- I assume the timing has something to do with the 45-dollar headphones I bought last night.
It is now 1:30 in the morning. Having shut the bathroom door so the drano could do its work on a clogged shower drain, I returned a few minutes ago to find the door LOCKED. It was always a little tricky-- I forgot to pad it with a towel this evening-- but I've always been able to open the thing before now. It has decided that I will not be using my toilet tonight, and I fear the havoc that is being wreaked upon my pipes as I type (I didn't get to rinse the drano out)... I'm really sleepy, I have to fucking pee, and the sink is starting to look really good right now.
Yes, it's definitely hilarious, in a tremendously irritating way, but I certainly have the feeling I'm being given special attention.
And I want to brush my teeth.
