Unpromising Beginnings

Yesterday, I had a terrible, terrible day. (I won't bore you with the details.)

As one does, last night I put the day away and looked forward to a fresh day today, where I wouldn't be dealing with everything I touched turning to utter disaster.

I woke up.

I picked up my glasses. They were slightly smudged. I took my lens-cleaning cloth and started cleaning my glasses.

One of the lenses fell out.
