Not what I meant to write about

[dr_tectonic]

The weather today was pretty dreadful, and I spent most of the day in a really pissy mood for no readily discernible reason. As in, I would read something, or get an email that I needed to respond to, and I would experience a flash of irritation that made me think Wow, I am in a pissy mood... And I considered venting about it somewhere, but then there was the bonus annoyance of knowing that any responses would have a good chance of just irritating me further.

But I got a new keyboard (Kinesis Contour freaky ergonomic keyboard, to replace the one that is dying because it's old and because I've rolled over the cord with my chair a few too many times), and after the internet came back on this evening I WoWed a bit, so the day was all right by the end.

Yesterday, by contrast, was really excellent.

...But it's late, so I think I'll save that for tomorrow.

I wonder if there could be a useful service in offering oneself as a scapegoat for bad moods. Like, you could send me an email about all the horrible things I've done and I could reply with in a meek tone, clearly cowed by the much-deserved righteous fury.

Even though, you know, it was things other people actually did. But that's not the point.

Right now I just delete the righteous fury emails after I write them. Perhaps that's as satisfying as sending them to the wrong person.

Yeah--- the weather was a problem for me, too, yesterday. The people in my life would be so much better off if the sun never failed to shine...
