And dear Esteemed and lovely BK -- nosh on a little something tasty, watch something fun or interesting, and let the less than great parts of the day drain away.
I'm sorry you had a "yucky drek" quotient as part of your day today. I was annoyed by something at a store the other day, and out of a spur of the moment impulse, I just looked at the clerk and said "what is it, fish?" Honest ! And you know what.... it kind of diffused the anger or tension I was feeling.
The clerk looked at me like she didn't know whether to shit or go blind, but I really didn't care. I felt better and lighter.
It was more rewarding than vomiting on the ground at that point.
