'A Spot of Bother,' by Mark Haddon. A disappointing read after loving 'The Curious Case of the Dog in the Night.' It's been a frustrating weekend and the people in the book were just pushing my buttons and making me want to run them over with my car. Between that and watching One Fine Day on Friday night, I cannot take anymore of situations that just don't work out smoothly. It's been gray all weekend and it was just hailing. I can't seem to talk myself into cheering up, though I know I really only have a half-day of work tomorrow since all morning is just an orientation breakfast and tour. Stupid brain won't listen to me though.
