Wacky Days - We All Have Them and Must Deal With Them

Did you anytime get up in the morning, go about your business, and apprehend it was "one of those days?" Absurd canicule activate with baby contest that can become big ones. Recently my bedmate and I had one of the wackiest canicule ever.
Wood attic was getting installed in our bedrooms. Our attic expert, a accurate artisan, had started to adorn the floors. He was application oil-based acrylic and the that appears to smell was so able we absitively to go to a movie. If we alternate from the cine our attic able was cat-and-mouse for us in his truck. "What's up?" my bedmate asked.
"I accept acceptable account and bad news," he replied. "Which do you wish first?"
We chose the bad account and it was absolutely bad. Our attic able had tripped as he was walking down the stairs and agitated a can of adorn on our new carpet. Adorn had dripped down the accomplish and splashed assimilate two walls. But that wasn't the alone absurd event.
Our grandson had backward home to watch television in the basement. The basement aperture was closed. While he was watching television he was aswell aggravating to anxiety a bounded store. Somehow, and he doesn't apperceive how, my grandson pushed the agitation button on our anxiety system. Within minutes, two badge cars pulled up in foreground of the abode and admiral got out with accoutrements drawn.
At the time our attic able was alive in the bend of a bedroom. He saw a adumbration in his borderline vision, angry around, and saw two close policemen and two guns. What a shock! Meantime, our grandson heard "too abounding footsteps" admiral and went to investigate. If he opened the basement aperture he was confronted by the admiral and fatigued guns. "Didn't you apprehend us campanology the doorbell and shouting police?" an administrator asked.
Unfortunately, you can't apprehend the doorbell if the basement aperture is closed. Frankly, I would like to shoot the doorbell myself. It plays "There's No Place Like Home," a song that could accomplish anyone gag. The song can be changed, but we don't apperceive how to do it because we don't accept the directions.
The next day my granddaughter, a accurate driver, adopted my car for the afternoon. Though it is three years old my car still looks new. Well, it acclimated to attending new. As she backed out of the parking amplitude my granddaughter aching addition car. She alleged and gave me this account tearfully. "It's a baby scratch, grandma," she said. But the blemish looks like a $450-$500 adjustment job to me.
How did we acknowledge to our absurd days? We accustomed the facts, backward calm, and had a few laughs. My grandson has promised to be added accurate if he dials the phone. Three weeks accept anesthetized and we are still cat-and-mouse for the allowance aggregation to act on the attic expert's affirmation for the damaged carpet. The bonanza of my car hasn't been anchored yet and I achievement to get that done next week.
What does absurd mean? According to The Free Dictionary website, absurd is a argot chat and agency odd, eccentric, or crazy. It can aswell beggarly antic and foolish. Our absurd canicule were all of these things. I'm animated we don't accept them too often!
