Can't an ordinary pony who lives in an extraordinary seaside town have one day, just one normal day, without anything going wrong? Posey sure wishes that things were that simple that grasp. It seems as though the day has other plans for her.

NOPE!

Its Annoy-Posey Day!!

Snapping her eyes open, her jaw dropped to the windowsill as she saw a certain light purple pegasus come flying towards her, a cartload of fruits behind her.

Oh boy Fifi still can't figure out the speed limit

“No, no. Bad Posey. That was yesterday. This is today. Let’s focus and the here and now and forget that,” Posey told herself, “Nothing will get in your way of a good day.”

Okay wow so she's trying to not to be all negative I guess that's a good thing

Dang she can't really catch a break can she

It's a very interesting story about her so it looks like Posey was starting to get ready for the day but apparently throughout her days she's been getting a lot of bad lucks lately having Fifi accidentally crashed into the house and messing up everything then Izzy as usual kind of made a mess as well and another day another random earth pony accidentally use his or hers magic to block the water system which oops and throughout her days it was been a pretty bad day but she's not going to let that happen because basically it's a normal thing apparently especially in this town kind of like particular town which I still miss but this was a pretty good story keep up the good work

The very moment her eyes opened, they instantly got blinded by the sunlight. She instantly closed them and slowly opened them again. Lifting her head from the bed, she noticed that her bedroom room windows were devoid of any curtains. Squinting her eyes some more, she noticed that there was also so sort of stain on the walls. Lots and lots of stains splattered on the wall like something that would be classed as a piece of artwork at Maretime Bay’s museum.

some sort of stain*

“How did I window not have any… oh.”

my window*

With no other option, all Posey could do was duck and cover her head with her forelegs as the pegasus came crashing in, an array of fruits flew in all directions and stained her favourite curtains and walls.

How am I not surprised. :ajbemused:

Posey shuddered at the mess that pegasus left behind. That was her first complaint to Hitch’s office that day. How delivery pegasi always fly too low! Fifi was lucky that nothing was broken apart from the fruit that was supposed to be delivered to Sunny’s smoothie stall.

It was an accident, she's still getting used to flying Posey. :fluttershysad:

“You’re… Most… Welcome…” Posey rose from the trash and saw Izzy turn a corner, leaving a trail of dust behind her. She saw her shopping, a sorrowful mess on the roadside.

While it was just an accident, I find it a rude of Izzy to not help Posey after her run in with her. :duck:

Walking up the stairs, she made a beeline to the bathroom, took out of towels and turned the faucet of the shower on. She hopped in, only to hop back out when the water was ice cold. She stood there in the middle of the bathroom, a pool of water forming underneath her. Shivering like a leaf on a bare twig, she heard her phone vibrate with a notification. Wiping off the cold water with her towel, she trotted to her bedroom and switched to the news bulletin.

out a towel/took out some towels*

“Welcome to Maretime Bay,” Posey smiled as she whistled a tune as she trotted down the path to that very town she called home.

While we can't always get what we want in life, it's best to accept it how it is whether it's good or bad. :ajsmug:

At least Posey is trying to be positive and her complaints are sensible. Also Izzy was a bit rude and should have helped Posey out of the trashcan at least.

Izzy has a tendency to lose focus of her surroundings. I got that part from this episode of Tell Your Tale

I think the real problem is that Izzy is allowed to operate a motor vehicle at all...

She's at least trying.

But you're assuming much, Posey, thinking of yourself as a "normal" pony--she might have valid reasons to complain sometimes, but other times she really is kinda being a grouch (and it's implied she was already a bit of one even before magic was restored), so I do sometimes think it's all just karma trying to make a point that just keeps flying right over her head. :rainbowlaugh:

This is a good slice of life story.

Always found that new "earth pony magic" thing strange haha

This is a good short story!

A normal pony hoping for a normal day is the equivalent of hoping for a normal field trip on the Magic School Bus.

Cause 9/10 It’s NEVER GONNA HAPPEN

Indeed
Posey: please let this be a normal day!
Ms frizzle TPOSES INTO REALITY WITH THE FRIZ?
ALL: NO WAY!

There's a reason why there's a tag "Posey can't catch a break" on Derpibooru.

Hello! I reviewed this recently, and so here's your courtesy note. Ambles amiably along and the ending is pleasant. Badly needs proofreading, but I can't deny that it fits your intention to provide short and simple stories. :twilightsmile:
