What it means
Our interpretation.
The speaker arrives with theatrical, gushing exhaustion, showering endearments while flopping onto the kitchen table. She claims to have worked all day since leaving that morning. The exaggerated collapse and repeated 'what a day' make the weariness comic and self-dramatizing.
