I know it comes with the territory, and happens to all of us (I think), but man o man I had one of those days where nothing sounded right yesterday.
You know, where you stare at the horn in disbelief, look for parts that have fallen off to blame, then curse your tech, then stare at the reed, then throw it out and replace it, then try another brand of reed, then go back to original reed, adjust it 4 times, then stare at the mouthpiece for a while, then adjust your sax strap, then try playing something else, then want to scream and consider throwing horn out the window.
Thank goodness I had to go away for 2 days for work.
But that horn and reed better behave right when I get back!
