Isn't it ironic . . .

Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you think everythings okay and everythings going right
And life has a funny way of helping you out when
You think everythings gone wrong and everything blows up
In your face

A traffic jam when youre already late
A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
Its like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
Its meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife
And isnt it ironic... dont you think?

-"Ironic" by Alanis Morissette

Yesterday I had "Ironic" by Alanis Morissette stuck in my head after several "ironic" moments.

On Wednesday night I spent several hours uploading 230 photos to Walgreens to print to show family, friends, and people at work. After I was done I ordered the prints. I went to bed and got up on Thursday morning to check my email to make sure the prints were done before I left for work because I was going to pick the prints up first. And guess what is sitting in my mailbox? A coupon from Walgreens for a 3 day sale that if you order 25 prints, you get 25 prints free. Que the music, "isn't it ironic . . . "

So I leave to go pick up the prints and run a few other errands before work. I get to Walgreens and pay for my prints. It cost ~$35 for the prints. As the clerk hands me the receipt she hands me a special in store coupon for $7 off my next photo purchase! Que the music, "isn't it ironic . . . "

AHHHH! After that I had the song stuck in my head ALL DAY!!!

I have to work tomorrow then have dinner at my parent's house, but my goal is to get the next installment of my trip report posted. Plus I have some layouts to post.

Later!
Melissa
