My toaster died, so I was already running late/behind schedule. At work, my coworker/client here {was being a pain/difficult/impossible to deal with . Then I got caught in the worst/longest/traffic jam ever and had to walk home/take a taxi. To top it all off, when I finally got home, I discovered that I had burned dinner. This day is definitely a strong contender for the worst day of my life .
