Bad DayBad Day

When I woke up this morning and sat up in bed
I realized quickly that I was [too] late.
I had a bad headache, nearly migraine,
Had no time for breakfast and it started to rain.

My car muttered and stuttered and made a big fuss;
I rushed out and then nearly missed the bus.
So I stood in it, shaking and dribbling wet
And watched dreamily how the bus ran down my cat.

Arrived two hours too late at my work,
Was ordered immediately by a clerk
To The Boss, and two minutes later was fired,
Then a phone call arrived that my mother just died.

On my way back discovered that I'd lost my keys,
But, arriving at home, I didn't need the
Just plain RainJust plain Rain

Yesterday afternoon me and my fellows
Had out in the rain a quick run.
I danced around puddles and counted umbrellas
And had a great lot of fun.

"Foul weather today", one suddenly said,
What I cheerfully did deny.
But all of them looked now as if I was mad
Because of my strange reply.

An uncommon object of adoration;
Well, to show that I was still sane,
I started to talk about purification –
For them, it was just plain rain!

The rain plays a tune as sweet as a bell
And hangs pearls in the spider's net,
A diamond in every raindrop that fell –
They simply find it wet.

Hear elfish songs or fairy cheers!

A while ago, I watched this [link]
Some time after that, I had a highly amusing dream about me creating a picture book containing the Sherlock version of "Little Red Hen".
Three days ago, I wanted to make that happen and wrote the text. I read it to myself to see if it sounded alright. My headset was lying next to me, so I said: "Hey, let's record it, just for the lulz."
Having done that, I thought: "This would make for an awesome animation."
I downloaded the first free animation program I could find (Vectorian Giotto) and learned how to animate. I ran into some problems (the program kept crashing whenever I tried to draw/animate anything more complex than a stick figure), so I cheated and drew all the frames in Photoshop and animated them afterwards.

Somewhere along the way insanity happened but I can't quite put my finger on it.

Anyway, I had lots of fun and I hope you enjoy the result. I also hope that my English is passable and that I didn't make any horrifying mistakes. I'd really appreciate your feedback.

Sherlock (c) BBC. Everything else is mine, so if you are about to repost it somewhere else or use parts of it or do whatever takes your fancy, please include a link to this deviation or my profile page.
