Does this only happen to me?

this past 24 hours has reminded me of why I sometimes choose to be cynical.

We'll start off with yesterday morning.

It had been so nice and sunny in SLC recently, not warm mind you but there was NO snow on the ground and it hadn't snowed in weeks. I decided to actually dress up a little bit more for work than usual {the problem with a 'casual' environment is that when I have to wake up at 5 I go really casual, like way more than normal... I digress. sorry} so I throw on a pair of cute jeans, a springy top and my favorite 5 inch peep toe wedges, they really are to DIE for.

I get to my workplace and am getting ready for the morning and setting up everything and then BAM I look outside and it's snowing. so I go to weather.com and it said light morning snow- just a few flurries. FALSE. it became a full on white out, the local universities canceled some classes. Then to make it worse I had to load my car with a bunch of boxes for the national Sales Kick Off in downtown Salt Lake. But don't worry I loaded my car, while 4 boys just watched me... lame, and dropped everything off at the hotel with no shoe issues, no slipping, nothing. Then I go home and the first thing I did was sink like the Titantic. I think even shou shou was laughing at me, obviously she's a dog so it wasn't out loud but I saw it in her beady little eyes.


Now for today:

I got up a little bit earlier than normal this morning so I thought I'll do my make up a little bit nicer than usual. That was my first mistake.

 Then I begin my morning commute and a truck completely cuts me off and then I notice it's like pacing me and we're the only 2 cars on the road so I look over and he blew a kiss at me. let me repeat...
HE BLEW A KISS AT ME. ew. 
and it didn't stop there. We ended up both going the same way on the 15 and he followed me or paced me and kept winking or waving at me. The winner though is that he followed me off my exit waiting until we were stopped at a light and then rolled his window down and asked for my number. Are you kidding me? When did this behavior become acceptable? It is not flattering to stalk someone? But don't worry I told him we need a few more morning commutes together before I gave him that kind of commitment. Then he preceded to get back on the freeway I'm assuming either to find his next victim or go to work.

I now feel like I'm covered in creep-shrapnel.

I knew I should have hit snooze a couple more times. Can I go back to bed and start over?
