Last night as Rachel and I were laying down to go to bed, the bottom of our bed frame snapped and we dropped about a foot. It was such long frustrating day but we some how managed to laugh about it. We pulled the mattress on to the floor and went to bed. I had a hard time waking up. I just didn’t want to go to work. That’s when I realized that I need to start looking around for another job.
