I am having an ass day, and need to vent.

The assness:
1. I got home from band practice last night to find out that my cat, Ella, lost at least one tooth. Her mouth was all bloody, and one of her top canines was missing. This morning, she just kept drooling really badly, and she won't eat. She's 12, and my wife's had her since she was a kitten, and we're both upset. She'll see a vet in about two hours, but the waiting sucks.
2. On top of that, my band has a show tonight, which I've been pretty excited about. Except that I heard from the booking person this morning that they had their time slots flipped around, so we're playing at 10:30 instead of 9. That's annoying, but shouldn't be that big a deal; but our drummer and other guitarist, who both can be babies about their bedtimes, are loudly grousing about just not doing the show. I called them on it and talked them out of it, but I'm still really mad and there's a good chance one or both of them will be all sulky tonight.
3. And then, in the background to all of this, the area right outside my office is being renovated, so it's power-tool-o-rama here today. Ugh.
OK. Thanks for listening.
