Dr. Watson was staring moodily at his eggs.

“Is… anything wrong?” asked Mrs. Hudson.

Watson looked up. “Just got out of bed the wrong side today.”

“Oh, I see.”

Mrs. Hudson frowned.

“You know, I’ve never understood that saying.”

Watson shrugged. “Well, if I’d got out the other side, I’d have avoided the chamber pot.”

Sigh. I feel your pain, Doctor Watson. It is a horrible way to start the day. Whether the shit is literal or figurative, yours or someone else's.
