had a bad day??? FELT THE BAY BAY!!!

So I had a bad day. A person showed the entirety of their ignorance and brought to life all the reasons why they will never have anything or be anyone worth a flip in life. Where along the way of growing up, do you learn that it is appropriate to yell down the hall of a professional building, in which clients are working with C.P.A.s, all the while mispronouncing words and proving to everyone the extent of your ignorance and the very reason you are at most a part time seasonal employee? Some how in our society today we have lost all concept of a professional attitude and what should and should not be done in public or what has business in a work place. This same person is the very one clients see asleep at her desk when they walk past her office. She is the very one who sat in front of a client talking into the blue tooth ear piece of her cell phone while they patiently waited for her to complete a service for which, they are paying over $500. Who ever said it is better to keep your mouth shut and let people think you are ignorant than to open it and prove them correct was amazingly on point.

So when I crawled into bed last night next to my beautiful wife and scooted down to rest my head on her ever growing tummy I exhaled all the bad air of the day. I breathed deep and began to tell Emma of all the things we would do when she graced us with her presence and finished it off with a little song my aunt used to sing to me that went like this:

I have a daisy on my toe
It is not real, It does not grow
It's just a tattoo of a flower
So I look neat taking a shower
It's on the second toe-
Of my left foot
It's a stem and flower-
But it has no root
BECAUSE
That wouldn't look good
I have a daisy on my toe
It is not real, It does not
grow ow ow ow ow-
As I sat up and asked Char if she could feel anything from the baby she quickly grabbed my hand and put it on her belly and for the first time I felt our little baby girl-child move. I like to think she was dancing to my beautiful music more realistically she was probably trying to cover her budding ears or punch at whatever was making such a racket but no one will know so we will go with my theory of dance. At that moment the whole world became right.
