A Series of Unfortunate (and fortunate) Events

wow, talk about the bull in the china shop, let's just review the week.
ok so we'll start with tuesday night, i'm supposed to have my first night class, i had kept slipping up adn saying it was from 6-8:30 rather than 6:30-8 (or so i THOUGHT it was a slip up) at about 6:07 i get a text from heather asking where i am because firmin just called my name for attendence, CRAP, so i run over there and i'm like freaking out, but it turned out ok, he was waaay nice about it and actually there was a girl who showed up later than even i did so i was very much relieved. now wednesday morning i get all bundled up and clean up my room for roomchecks and head out the door, i get to my class and it's empty and i realize, wow you're a dinkus, you don't ahve cook's classes today, so i proceed to go to the apple lab and print out a paper (for his 1 o'clock, not putting together that i don't have that class either, once again, dinkus) and write some emails and such, and as i'm sitting there i realize, hey i have time enough to go get breakfast, i get to the ssc, look in my bag, guess who forgot their ID and key, that's me alright (i tell you i do more dumb things before 10am than the world does all day) but wait, it gets better. that afternoon i'm sewing and a friend asks me to have dinner, i should've said yes and set up a time but i didn't know how long the sewing would take me and i'm not interested in rushing myself so i told him i'd let him know all the while forgetting i had a conference at 6. so at like 5:20 i realize i'm just finishing up and gonna call him to go eat and DUH i have conference. so i tell him, nevermind go eat with the boys i have to clean up and go to that. after it's over and i do eventually get food i'm on the phone and sitting next to my computer. now would be a good time to give some background on my laptop. now without going into too many details about my sanity and regard for firecodes i'll tell you that for the past semester i have taped (duct, packing, scotch, whatever gets the job done) my power cord to the back of my computer. -the battery's shot and doesn't go much mroe than 20 mins so i constantly have it plugged in- this taping process causes the cord to heat up a bit more than is regulation so i'm on the phone near my computer when i notice that it's not charging, so i go to rearrange it and it makes this mysterious sizzle noise that it's been making for the past couple of days and as i do that it begins to smoke (more than usual) so i kind of freak out and rip off all the tape and yell at my roommate "what do i do what do i do" deciding that i can't douse it in water because it's an electrical appliance but it has now begun to spark slightly and is creating a flame, i freak out, throw the phoen and dive under my desk to unplug it (this luckily stops the flame) and after an open window and door and the fan on the smoke was all the way down the hall. this too is not the end. i get that all under control, return my phone call and after that decide to take a shower before bed, i grab my towel off the rack on the back of the door and lo and behold the whole rack comes with it!! my roommate and i about die laughing deciding that nothing more could go wrong. [edit added 1/19 i totally forgot this part: then at like 3:45 in the morning i awake to my whiteboard calendar swinging from one hook, about to fall completely off the wall adn on top of me! so i quickly grab it and rip it the rest of the way off the wall and place it on the ground before returning to my slumber...it was quite the day]. however some things did go RIGHT today. "coincidentally" this weekend i got the urge to order a new computer cord because i so desperately needed one and what should happen to arrive today but said needed cord!
i've stopped believing in coincidences (hence the quotes) and today was a day that proves to me that no matter where i stand, no matter how much i slide or take for granted, or try and do things my way, God's still in control...changedfish
