The very horrible bad day

I don't usually have very horrible bad days
but none the less 
it turned to that today

Starting this morning 
When I opened my eyes
the time was mistaken
I do not have the luxury of sleeping til 7

Let the dog out
now its 7:08
Shower quick and cold
no time to ponder the absence 
hot water

arrive at work 8:05
not too bad
my phone rings as it always does
I feel like some of the customers
are my friends 
I know their accounts so well

One of my best friends
is on the phone
I recognized her voice
calling to tell me there has been a mistake
I checked she's right

fixed it and
talked to her 3 more times
before the days end
will meet her tomorrow for the first time

My day flies by
no thoughts of cold water
until I reach into my mail box
Centerpoint Energy says I didn't pay
They say there's a lock

My bank account says that I did
I pay my account ahead for good luck
and call. The payment you see
didn't register as paid

She agreed that I did
reconnection with out additional fee
they will give me a call

8:00 am to 8:00 pm
I must be available at a 30 minutes notice

I know what you are wondering
why didn't I notice

The Y has been my after work
companion

and last night I didn't go
