Daily Prompt: Murphy’s Law says, “Anything that can go wrong will go wrong.” Write about a time everything did — fiction encouraged here, too!
To start the day off I found that my trusty mouse which I have used for 3 years just decided to pack up. I took a trip out to get a new one and of course when I got back I had bought all sorts of other things, but the mouse. This then caused me to take a second trip, this time I actually purchased the mouse.
Whilst at the mall getting the mouse, somehow, someone, something, I just don’t know made huge scratch along the side of my car *angry and perplexed expression.* Next to happened was that I dropped my sleek little cell phone which cracked the glass cover *more perplexed-ness.* Which meant yet another trip to the mall! True as Bob.
This is a true story, Mr Murphy sure had it in for me that day and has not picked on me since..

Hang in there Michelle, sometimes we can’t see the lessons of our experience as we are trapped in them, but there is always a lesson for someone.
Enjoy the new mouse!
Actually I love the new mouse because its cordless and pink unlike my old
I think Murphy is looking for trouble elsewhere now 
*hugs*
On the bright side, it sounds like Murphy has moved on.
Hope he stays away a long time…
Yes, I think his work is finished here, El
*hugs*
A frustrating day! At least it won’t repeat itself.
I’m sure it won’t
*hugs*
Funny how things happen in groups of three – What did you learn?
I learned that you get a cordless mouse
and that these things are not that important in the big scheme of things 
*hugs*
Old Murphy must have had enough of you that one day Esperanza!!
Such bad luck!
Glad it’s over now
I know, I don’t know what came over him that day, but its all over now
*Hugs*

Oh my. Well, they say bad luck comes in 3′s. You’ve had your 3 for today, so you should be safe!
I think I’ll be safe for quite some time now, Lorna
*hugs*
Oh I hate days like this!!!!!
Its ok, I think Murphy is finished with me for now
*hugs*
Eek! That particular Murphy was definitely a grumpy leprechaun you had inadvertently stepped on or something.
Maybe I should’ve offered him some ale
*hugs*
Perfect!
Thanks Dor

oh ..that’s “Murphy at his best” …
I can’t click “Like”, WP won’t let me .. but I love the photo below in your previous entry
Thank you Ocean, yes he was on top form that day…
*hugs*
Me and ol’ Murphy are well acquainted. Everything does happen for a reason and everything has it’s lessons. Your lessons that day was probably to see if you could handle adversity better that day than in the recent past. I hope you passed.
I hope I passed too, thank you Phoport.
*hugs*

How about: if you had stayed home, you would have left the stove on and set the curtains on fire, burning down your home and, possibly, you? A little overboard? sorry.
Scott
NO, I dont know it was just one of those days so I thought I’d re-tell it for the prompt
*hugs*
For some reason, I thought you were talking about a…rodent.
Silly me.
Actually, whilst I was typing this I thought that some might think I am talking about a real live mouse
*hugs*
Whew! Shop online. May Murphy continue to pass you by. They also say “Good luck, bad luck, who knows?” What may have seemed bad turns out to be good in the end, who knows? xoxo
Its should all turn out good I think, art
*hugs*
How rude of Murphy and whoever scratched your car!
I know! and its a horrible scratch too. I’ll have to take it in to be fixed.
*hugs*
Everything happens in threes. So, you are done now
I think so too
What a day! Hope Mr Murphy has taken a hike far away from you, and stays there.
Hugs
I think Murphy has left the building, ad.
*hugs*
