I'm Nora Mcnerney and this is Terrible.

Thanks for asking.

I think we know by now that sometimes accidents happen.

Let's say you accidentally send a text about a person to that person or you open your

corridor and you hit the garage wall that has always been there.

You call someone by the wrong name.

You knock over a display at the grocery store because you have poor spatial reasoning or

you miss the last step.

On a staircase you walk so often that your body really ought to have it memorized by now.

One time I accidentally deleted an episode script the week before it was supposed to come

out.

And Jordan had to live chat with Google which we didn't even know as possible and they

did some kind of magic that retrieved it and the day was saved.

This just happened and maybe it's annoying or somewhat inconvenient but we forgive and

forget and we move on with our days or our lives or we try to.

It just doesn't make us a bad person you know.

But some accidents have bigger consequences even though they happen just as quickly.

Missing your bus stop for getting that it's April 18th and your taxes were due three

days ago.

A day is mundane, utterly forgettable in every way until it isn't until it's the worst

day of your life.

Today's episode is about one of those mistakes.
