Irritable

My mother said something very incisive to me yesterday:

"I can't believe someone as intelligent as you still lets these things get you down!"

Damn mothers with their stupid superior motherly wisdom, opening a can of whoop-mothering on my ass.

Yeah.

...

Deep breath.

This, too, shall pass.

  2. Whoever's got you down in the dumps needs a good arse-kicking. (although I've got three to one odds that it's me)

  3. Hey Dan - no it's not you. For once. Enjoy the moment, I'm sure you'll stuff it up in no time. ;)

    While it would be nice to deliver a good arse-kicking, it's one of those situations where you just can't - you have to steam over it but ultimately move on, or collapse in a twisted mass of bitterness.

    And thanks for your kind words Sleepy Dumpling - although I wouldn't like to cheapen actual sufferers of depression by claiming to be plagued by the "black dog".

    In my case, it's more like a "purplish ferret".
