It's a strange day today

Can you feel it? Something is wrong. Today's the day I watch my back. Gonna pay close attention to motorists, and avoid people at work who might wish to exercise "authority." It's that kind of day; when you're too dependent upon others to get things done, when nothing works as it should and all tossed objects fall just short of the trash, and doors don't close all the way even though you gave them a proper shove. Today's the day the mail is late and the computer works slow and you run out of hot water in the shower. Today's the day you least need interference but since everyone else feels ill at ease, they'll be coming to you all day long to take care of their troubles, never mind your own. I don't have a lick of confidence in anyone today. Today's the day I'll lose my temper, today's the day I'll waste on other people's problems, today's the day everyone will be at the breaking point --- probably right around the time I'll need to ride my bike home, and everyone will be speeding in their big trucks and swerving into the bike lane "because I am in the way." I can feel it. Today's the day no-one replies to my emails. Today's the day I can't finish typing my sentences because I'll be interrupted at every turn.
