Transportation: Today, I woke up at 2:30 AM. Thinking I was going to be late...

Today, I woke up at 2:30 AM. Thinking I was going to be late for my 3:30 AM flight, I rushed into the bathroom to shower. As I came out of the shower, I slipped and broke my arm. I then realized my flight is tomorrow. FML

Today, I set my alarm for 3:30 AM to catch an early flight. I got up, got dressed, and arrived at the airport in record time. While checking in, I was told that my flight is tomorrow morning. I’m now wide awake and sitting in a 24-hour diner, having a very early breakfast. FML

Today, I got up at 2:30 a.m. to catch an early flight home. I was tired and drowsy and took a quick shower to wake me up. Two minutes in, the water turned scalding hot on all settings. I ended up having to rinse my hair with bottles of sparkling water from the hotel minibar. FML

Today, I woke up to go to school. I was unbelievably tired, but I gathered the courage to go take my shower. I then took a long shower, cleaned up my room, got dressed, and ate breakfast. Going back to my room, I looked at the clock, which read 3:22 AM. FML

Today, at three in the morning, I rolled out of bed in my sleep, landing butt-first into my trash can and scraping my arm on my bedside table. I cleaned up the mess I'd made and tried to stop my arm from bleeding. During which, my dad banged on the door and told me to keep it down. FML

Today, I woke up after being sick from the flu and tried to get out of bed. I forgot I was in a bunk bed and broke my ankle in the fall down. FML

Today, my boss yelled at me for being 3 hours late. I was late because I fell down the stairs and broke my arm. Apparently, breaking my arm is not a good enough excuse. FML

Today, I woke up at the ungodly hour of 3 a.m. to go to the bathroom. It was of course quite dark, and unbeknownst to me, the door was closed. I walked into it. Then I tried to open it, missed the door knob, and walked into the door again. FML

Today, I woke up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom. I was there with the lights out when something ran across my foot. I freaked out, tried to kick it off, and ended up smashing my foot into the side of the tub. FML

Heavy phone, dude

Today, I'm in the E.R. because I broke one of my toes when my cellphone slipped from my hands after taking a shower. Needless to say, my cellphone broke too. FML

Um, unless you live IN THE AIRPORT...if you woke up 1 hour prior to the flights departure you were screwed from the get go. They begin boarding the flight 20min to departure not including gettin through security and checking bags which BTW the cutoff time for THAT is 1 hour to departure...just saying

If its a tiny municipal airport they may not need you there more than half an hour before the flight. I know I dropped my sister and grandmother off once only 15 minutes prior and they still got through fine. When there are no lines security only takes 5-10 minutes, and boarding doesn't take long either. But at any large airport, you were screwed from the get-go unless you were staying at an in-airport hotel.

I do that all the time! Except I wake up at seven, get all ready thinking I'll be late for class, and then it turns out that it like only three in the morning. It sucks! But I always to that!

If you wake up an hour before your flight, you're already late.

If you thought you were late, with only an hour until your flight leaves, you wouldn't be taking a shower. I can see if it it's a smaller airport, but even then I would wonder why you'd care about your shower more than getting ready, packed, and out the door...

While taking a shower was a really stupid move, and qualifies for a YDI, I'd just like to note that I've gotten to the airport 25 minutes before my flight (yes, 5 minutes before boarding started) and basically walked onto my plane and left, so the OP wasn't necessarily totally screwed. Though taking a shower makes no sense whatsoever in this situation.
