Last night I was in bed at seven then awake till two for no reason. That’s why I didn’t wake up today until eight when the dog sat on my chest and clawed at my head. He HAD food, he HAD toys, he had Whole House Access. So, then, I was going to get ready for work when I thought, “Oh, I’ll just lie down for a moment and rest my eyes.”
That’s why I arrived at work today at 10:20 with messy hair and a foul, foul mood. The items listed below did not improve my mood.
- I have cultivated a diverse music festival of moles and skin tags on my neck. Big moles, little baby moles, skin tags, baby skin tags. Nine total on the left, four on the right.
- I still have the poison ivy reaction.
- We got very bad family health news today (not Wilma, for those playing along at home).
- I need a shock collar that zaps me when I eat ice cream in the afternoon. Another pleasure lost to age.
- I was all geared up to renew my auto tags when I realized I hadn’t had either car inspected.
- I forgot to put out the trash.
- I am shamefully off my Words With Friends game.
- I ate lunch alone.
- My beloved work husband Tim has taken a job with another firm. While he won’t leave until September, I worry I might lose him.
It was just a day I focused on the picky negative details of my fully-charmed life. I could have just as well focused on the positive (TeddyJ feeds me ice cream in the afternoon) but I was in a pissy mood. And I wanted to be.

Must be a delayed reaction from having laughed at the pedophile joke. (P.S. Sorry to have left you eating alone. I really DID have to get something done.)
Sometimes you just need to grab a bottle of wine and wallow about in the foulness of the mood.
My house mate was in a foul mood yesterday. She warned me about it in a text message before she came home, so I hid in my room. I thought that was probably the most mature way to deal with it.
If you find that shock collar, ask if it has a Twix setting. I need that one.
Oh, and your husband made you sit in pee all night long.
Your allowed at least one foul mood day a week, right?

Marcia – Of course, no problem Shania – But, I hate wine. I tried to get Dairy Queen but missed the exit. I need a big hit of hot fudge. Tami – I really hope mine lifts soon. It has been two days.Amy in StL – You would think the cause and effect would make an impression by now. Becs – That was days ago! I’m all washed up now.Nicole – One day a week? Really? I’m over my limit then, because I was pissy today too.
