Up on the wrong side of the bed

dreamstime_5029022Do you have days where you just want to crawl back in bed and not think about all the things you have to do?

That’s how my day started today and I can tell you that things have gone down from there. I burnt myself quite badly a couple of weeks ago and so I’m in a lot of pain. It was with boiling water and it’s big and you don’t want to know the rest. It’s gross. I started working (because I work every day) and I was uncomfortable and tired and cranky.

Some guy uploaded an erotic story and we view everything before it gets published on our site and it’s a good thing too. His story was a page and a half long and it was one sentence. Yep one sentence. So being the kind person that I am, I wrote to him and explained that nobody would read a story with only one sentence that went on for a page and a half. I even pasted his story back to him in case he hadn’t saved it. I asked him if he could please check it and add some punctuation and paragraphs.

He did his best and resubmitted it. There were paragraphs in there but it took me nearly 45 minutes to fix 328 errors in it. Now I know I should have just deleted the damn thing and just moved on but I felt bad that he was stupid and I fixed it. Then I was mad at myself for wasting all that time.

Truthfully, I’m rarely in a bad mood so when have the “can’t help its” they seem much worse than they really are. I’ve tried thinking a happy thought for 17 seconds and I smiled for 3 seconds and then I went right back to feeling pissy again.

Someone suggested that I should look at peaceful photographs. I tried that and all I saw were pictures of places I’d like to visit — without me in them.

Someone else suggested that I meditate. How can you meditate when all you really want to do is throw rocks?

What are your tricks for getting out of a shitty mood? My husband would like me to find out.

    Sometimes we just have to become reconciled with days like this. We are humans after all and this is normal.

    I have meaningless sex with anonymous men but your husband might not like that.

    It’s really difficult for me to feel better on a day like that. Moaning and groaning about everything doesn’t work, but I know we all tend to do it. Sometimes just taking a nap helps, or if you are a smoker – smoke (But that doesn’t help for me cos I stopped on the 3rd of Jan).
    I think if someone gives you a compliment on a bad day that also helps.

    ciao!
