Yep. Right on queue. Doesn’t matter how you budget it, it’s the ability to guess and get it right without your magic 8 ball. (BTDT burned the teeshirt and ate the valium and tums).
Especially when you’re driving or just got slopped full of something like paint so you can’t touch the phone and it’ll take you 20 min to clean up enough to touch it….
Mine has a sensor to tell people to call me JUST as I’m about to drop a deuce. No word of a lie. It happens nearly EVERY time. I’ve sat down, pants around my ankles, and my Hearts game running and “RING RING!”
I ignore the call, and I hope anyone who receives a call while on the loo does, otherwise you should be shot! LoL
I had a space where hubby was in grad school and I was elsewhere working so we could afford it.. .and for almost three years, I don’t care what time of evening I needed to offload; he would call in the middle of it. Days before cordless, I had a custom 110ft phone cord made and snaked it around everything and I would take the phone down the hall with me to sit. He got all the sound effects he deserved. No it was too inconvenient for HIM to pick a standard time to call….
That’s not stupidstitious… That’s called Murphy’s Rule. It’s similar to Murphy’s Law but with more of a real time affect.
It’s same law that says Just at quitting time, the boss “suddenly” remembers a job he/she wanted done Yesterday but failed to put on your desk until Now.
The same rule comes into play when you’ve Finally gotten colicky Junior to stop wailing and go to sleep when some jack/jenny comes blaring down the road with raucous music to wake said baby back up.
It’s also the same rule that laughs in your face when you Finally find a way to get time off from work then come down with the flu so you spend the whole damned vacation hurfing and sweating and wishing to Gawd you’d just die aready.
Or two of you working, you coordinated vacations and have the best laid PREPAID NO REFUND plans and at least one of you comes down so sick you can’t go, and by the time the vacation ends, the other one goes down with it. So one of you has to take unpaid time (you’re out of sick leave) for the vacation you couldn’t go on or get refunded–pay for it twice. Now THAT is Murphy.

Did you know your smartphone has an app that senses when you should receive inconvenient messages that add more work to your load?
It does.
True fact.
Bloatware, man, it’s an evil thing…

David Sedaris could never seem to understand why his sister was trying to open a jar of pickles every time he called her. *grunt* *strain*

so much for being done he is going to have to make a devils deal with lowel again.
Cue the “FFFFFFFFFFFfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff-” in about two strips, maybe one.
