one of those days
Everything goes wrong
A day when everything seems to go wrong—minor frustrations pile up, plans fall apart, and nothing works as expected.
The phrase signals resignation more than complaint: I locked my keys in the car, spilled coffee on my shirt, and missed my flight. It's just been one of those days.
