We have all experienced days when everything goes wrong,. A day begin well enough ,but suddenly everything seems to get out of control. What invariably happens is that a great number of things choose to go wrong at precisely the same moment . it is as if a single unimportant event set up a chain of reactions.

   Let us suppose that you are preparing a meal and keeping an eye on the baby at the same time. The telephone rings and this marks the prelude to an unforeseen series of catastrophes. While you are on the phone ,the baby pulls the table-cloth off the table, smashing hale your best crockery and cutting himself in the process. You hang up hurriedly and attend to baby, crockery, etc. Meanwhile the meal gets burnt. As if this were not enough reduce you to tears, one of your best friends arrives , unexpectedly bringing three guests to dinner.

   In a word, it’s very awful. Under the circumstances, person is always fretful.

   It was just one of those days! One of those off days!

   So bad! I can’t take it any more.

I feel I read a similar article before.  A housewife was making a paste of flour, butter and eggs while the telephone rang.  As she pick up the receiver with her sticky hand to answer the phone, the doorbell was ringning at the same time.
