Glory Morning? Definitely Not!

It is one of those days again.

I was waiting for the elevator when a lady came and waited beside me. As the elevator doors opened, she rushed into it before me. How Rude!! I was going to ask her if she missed my full attire and confused me with a chivalrous man, or am I now the invisible woman?! I restrained my tongue from lashing on her, as I didn’t want to get upset so early in the day, and just gave her a look of complete disgust. I pressed level 11 after she pressed 15, and waited. When I saw that we reached the 10th floor, I went close to the elevator’s doors prepared to leave. I saw 11 light goes off, but no door opened, and the elevator continued its ascend. It stopped at 15 and we both looked at each other bewildered. As she was stepping out she asked me whether I pressed 11 or was she imagining it. I confirmed that she didn’t imagine it, and continued saying that it seems that the elevator chose to ignore my presence too, and then pressed “close doors” followed by 11. I swore under my breath and promised my self that if this elevator continued its conspiracy, I will just leave the building and go home. No such luck. The doors opened at 11.

The minute I walked into the office, I asked the office assistant to get me a “Glory Morning”, hoping that this Starbucks muffin would cheer me up, and a large hot chocolate, skimmed milk of course. I needed the fix. He came back with a chocolate doughnut from Bytes instead as there was no "Glory Morning" (is this a sign or what!), and my drink. And then he told me that Starbucks has increased its prices. My already one of the most expensive drinks has become 2 dirhams more expensive!

Yes, it is one of those days for sure!
