You know how sometimes you just grab hold of a day and kick it's ass? Yeah, today not so much. It hasn't been a terrible day or anything but I'm cranky and the storms last night kept me awake. Leaving me with a very short fuse. I'm not sure how I managed to get through the day without taking someones head off. I did lose it earlier in a meeting but not with anyone in particular and in a way that everyone else seemed to find quite enjoyable. I guess I was the day's amusement - which doesn't really make me feel any better.
I picked up two more projects today, both of which need to be done by the first week of July. And both are nothing but big black holes where specs are concerned. And a third project that I was supposed to start two days ago but just got around to today is already stalled because the zip file from the vendor is corrupted. *sigh* Can I give up now?
I need to shake this mood. I have it way better than some people - I'm healthy, I have a job, I have savings, I'm loved, I like my life. Things most definitely do not suck. But when I'm cranky like this it is hard to put (or keep) things in perspective. I get cranky about having to look at cars to replace mine (lease is up in a couple months) when I should be thankful that I have the money to buy a decent car in the first place. I get aggravated that I still need to go to the grocery store when there are people who can't afford food. Perspective, girl. Get some.
So, I am going to head to the gym and spend as long on the elliptical as I possible can and try to sweat out some of this mood.
