3 Cracked Eggs & A Purse in the Trash

Yes, you read that right. So, I was in a hurry this morning, and wanted to take some eggs with me to work so I could microwave some egg whites for breakfast. So, I gently placed them in the side pocket of my purse (which I have done in the past) and was very careful placing my purse down in the car.
When I arrived at work, I grabbed my laptop to place back in my lap top bag, and it slipped out of my hands and dropped on the seat (where my purse was) which did not phase me at the time.

So here I am at work getting hungry, and thought, oh I am going to make my eggs! NOT! I opened my purse to find YES all 3 eggs cracked and everything in my purse ruined!!!! Well, ok not everything. My makeup was ok, and my coins were ok after I soaked them. Fortunately my wallet was ok. But everything else went in the trash.

But hey, it was a witnessing opportunity. Witnessing opportunity you say? Yes, everyone else in my office saw how calmly I handled it, and all stated that they would have handled it quite differently and with quite a few choice words. I said at that point all I could do was laugh, so laugh I did, and then proceeded to clean it all up. Needless to say, it was a GREAT way to start my day. I guess you could say I played my own April Fools joke on myself!
