That is a bad morning (oh, I got someone to cover for me at the briefing.).

Okay, still horrible, but please create your own thread. You are strangling out OP's voice.

You keep saying stuff like that. You do know that one person posting on a thread doesn't prevent another person posting on a thread, right? Do you understand how forums work?

Hate to pile on, but I am curious what ethnicity or from what culture OP is.

She sounds very WASPY to me.

I don't think OP was giving the presentation, just setting up the conference room, but maybe I misread.

+1 here, my husband is on business travel. I woke up at 6am. I spent the morning rushing around trying to get myself and the kids ready. Managed to accomplish this, then my 3 year old let the dog out and decided to go outside w/ her, no shoes on, got covered in mud the required a change. We finally make it into the car and then get stuck in some of the worst traffic ever! an hour and 20 mins to go 8 miles! Then while we are stuck in this traffic my 3 year old tells me he has to go potty and I am literally stuck and can't get anywhere for him to go, we of course have an accident. We arrive at school where I have to spend 20 mins changing him and getting him settled down since he is embarrassed about his accident. I then get to my work building and I am told there are no more spots left in the parking garage. I then spend 30 mins driving around trying to find something. I have no luck and decide I am parking in a grocery store garage and hoping to hell I have not been towed at the end of the day! OP, this is also what a BAD MORNING looks like. I am just trying to give you some prospective.

Were you commuting from VA to DC? I had a similar morning stuck in horrendous traffic (a little over an hour to go 5 miles) and then finding the office garage full. No potty accident, though. Still, I had a great morning, still floating on the high from last night when Villanova won the championship!!

+1000 Who fris canned tuna? This is disgusting. Do you also put it on white bread with mayo? Blech.

No, based on the reaction to the fried tuna, the given recipe/spices, and the absolute lack of communication between her & her DH... I am thinking there is an ethnicity.

I am guessing an Asian country. Just my guess.

You weren't up with a baby or a child. How bad could your night have been?

I think OP is crazy but this response is equally inept. Just because you have a kid doesn't mean that you never had any pre-kid bad days. I've had bad days with my kid and before I had kids. You must have a mommy martyr complex.

Yes, I was commuting from Alexandria to DC. I have not seen the traffic that bad in awhile. I am about to leave shortly and praying my car is still parked in the grocery store garage, if not, my day will be getting much worse. My husband was on business travel in Houston and was actually at the game last night. He said it was AMAZING! I went to bed early, so I missed it

Seriously questioning everything about you and your life choices OP. You're already running late and decide to cook lunch. You know you can just go buy lunch. Frying tuna sounds effing revolting

This is an awesome observation and made me LOL. I wonder if fried tuna is what you take when you're off to hunt bobcats?

Frankly, OP lost her right to her voice when she opened her mouth and showed her single digit maturity level.
