Righteous Anger
Perhaps I shouldn't start the day with two of cups of coffee.
Today has been a lesson in getting over myself.
And being pissed. Yes, plenty of being pissed. I've been confronted with lots of situations where I have to look at things and behaviors that I think are wrong and restrain myself from yelling about it. I tend to take things personally, too. The list includes a parent who chewed me out because her daughter doesn't bring notes from class home, hearing about the run-around Amherst College is giving the Newman Club again regarding graduation Mass, a Catholic-made card game that glorifies the likes of Francisco Franco and Hernan Cortes, ordination of women (or the lack thereof), and more.
Anyway, I don't really know why I'm so sensitive today. I imagine that extra cup of coffee I had this morning because I made too much by accident might have something to do with it. Whatever it is, I'm letting it wash over me, because being angry is a little fun for a while.
