You know you are having a bad day when the guy in the car behind you waiting at the drive thru calls out to you and says:
"Hello! Are you feeling okay? You look really stressed out!"
How embarrassing is that?
"Oh, I'm just not having a good day, that's all."
"I can tell! Don't worry, things will get better.."
"I hope so, thanks!"
Okay, now I really want to pull up my window, but now that he has pointed out how awful I feel, I'm feeling flushed, and I just want to scream out of my window to leave me alone! But I don't. I feel defeated. It feels like everything is stacked up against me--win for lose situation... This guy is making me want to cry now. He won't shut up though.
"Now you owe me. When I have a bad day, you are going to have to tell me the same..."
Yeah, right buddy... I don't know you, and I'm never going to get to know you! I think to myself. Maybe this guy is just trying to hit on me or something. Does that really happen? I mean, do people actually use the drive thru to get dates nowadays?!
I nod my way to his direction, and force a smile.
I finally retrieve my food, and go off to my next destination for the day. I look at my rear view mirror, and low and behold, there he is again, eating a Whopper over his steering wheel. Lovely. I race through the yellow light in hopes that he doesn't get through it. My day now seems a little bit brighter...

Did he look like Charlie Sheen?
No... He looked more like John Belushi.
