Amazing how a song can be just hte thing to knock you out of your storyline.
As the title says, I was having a bad day. I wasn't throwing too big of a pity party, yet, but I was feeling like it was a bit overwhelming. I get in the car to run the numerous errands laid out before me. I rarely turn the radio on, but I was in my husband's car. One song ended as I backed out and started down the road. Before I could hit the off button this song came on the radio. Daniel Powter's "You Had a Bad Day." As I drove along listening to this jaunty song about someone having a bad day I started laughing. It almost sounded like a conversation between my husband and me when either of us are feeling down.
Things happen for a reason, I believe, and when you open yourself up to everything around you, the universe usually comes back with what you need at the moment.
Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
You've seen what you like
And how does it feel for one more time
You had a bad day
You had a bad day
