Today, I spent more time driving to my vacation spot than actually vacationing. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
"At least you've got a job" - Mr. Missingthepoint
Today, I drove an hour to work, did nothing for 8 hours, drove an hour back, and then studied for 4 hours. This has been happening for weeks. FML
Today, I returned from vacation. Because of rain, I spent 3 days sitting in a hotel room, watching a TV with bad reception. I'm now less relaxed that if I'd have just stayed home, because that wouldn't have cost me $500, and my TV has more than 15 channels. So much for my first vacation in 5 years. FML
Today, I spent six hours driving between two airports to try and catch my flight. Two trailer accidents, two construction zones, three detours, and one police escort later, the airline wouldn't let me on the plane. FML
Today, my mother lectured me for not spending enough time with her. We literally just got back from a 10 day vacation together. FML
Non perishable goods
Today, I'm on a road trip with my wife and in-laws. After 8 hours of driving we stopped at a hotel to rest overnight. I was elected to go to the grocery store to get dinner. While I was gone, they ate at a restaurant without me. I spent $80 on groceries for the trash can. FML
Obey
Today, I was looking forward to languishing on the beach for a few days of a “much needed vacation” when I literally got called back into work on my way to the beach. FML
Panic! At the Costco
Today, I had to drive over an hour away to buy toilet paper. FML
Today, I have a busy week scheduled at work, so I took my file home to smash out some reports. Naturally I did not do any work at home and then I also forgot to take the file back to work the next day. Instead of saving time, I wasted an hour driving home to collect it. FML
Fun times
Today, my friend and I got back from a vacation, for which we both took time off work and coordinated. He didn’t want to do anything besides stay in the cabin and play video games. We went on a half-mile walk and that's about it. FML
Today, I drove into my school. Literally drove into my school. FML

Either super long drive or super short vacation. Either way your life sucks.

Have never done this, but my spouse feels it would be a liberating experience. FML

People only enjoy the destination when some can find more enjoyment in the journey, take a back road and enjoy less cars and noise and maybe nice scenery.

10+ hour drive stuck in the packed car with 5 other people. Went from the lower peninsula of Michigan to the Upper looking at Michigan Tech, and vacationing. Drove 26 hours to Texas in the same conditions too.
