GRAR Feeling extra grumbly today. →[More:]
No one big thing, just a bunch of little things that are frustrating in the aggregate. Anyone else feeling the same?
Getting my thrice-annual check-in today (as opposed to annual check-up) with my doctor. Here's hoping I'm not 'healthier than I feel'. I've printed out a formal list of everything I want to talk to him about; hope it makes me look more organized and not OCD.
I started my day with a bad (paying more than I'd hoped for rent, thanks to my husband buying the fancy antique lamp we wanted) and grumpy (was STILL late, so I had to drive, thus netting me another *mumble mumble* in parking ramp fees that I don't have), but then there was a good (Starbucks lady was a few minutes behind on my spinach wrap, so she gave me coupons for TWO free drinks).
God, could I sound any more first-world fussy this morning?
I was grumpy yesterday (which manifests in me spending my time online looking at options for places to move) and today I feel like it's a grand ole day.
I was in a better mood than I deserved to be today. Last night I ate an entire pack of espresso candy (5 pieces) my honey bunny brought home from the neighborhood Italian deli (they're soooo delicious) and was up till 2am. Three more pieces from a second pack kept me goin' today (I gave away the other two to colleague friends). Maybe that's the key to beating the grars: Caffeine!
I'm doing better. The headache I woke up with is gone, I've eaten a couple times and had a cup of tea. And I've warmed up so the achey feeling has mostly gone away. Yay for being grump-less!
