Today is one of those days where I wish I never crawled out of bed.
Nothing specific happened, except I woke up on the wrong side of the bed today. Maybe it had something to do with me being unusually tired (*cough* 6 a.m.) and thus irritable. Now I’m finally back home and I can begin to unwind and try to erase this day from memory. Here are my top ten ways to get out of a stank-azz mood.
- Take a long hot shower with some scented soaps. Candles are great, too! For the pyromaniac in me.
- Ride around the community on my bike until my legs start screaming bloody murder.
- Play with my cranky cat, who’s sure to do something to make me laugh.
- Read a good book. Right now I’m in the middle of Atlas Shrugged. I’m usually a fast reader, but putting a dent into this book has been moving slowly… very slowly. I’m embarrassed to say how slowly.
- Meet up with a good friend and laugh over dinner and drinks. I’m craving a cheesesteak today… because I love clogged arteries, of course. Too bad it’s so hard to look for a good place here among all the impostors without driving more than an hour. Down with cheesefakes.
- Continue working on my painting. Picasso can go kick rocks. Or not.
- Play SimCity 4. I’m a sucker for simulation games. Except I hate it when those damn Simsfolk stop me from building a city that rivals NYC. Hello, 50% tax is not THAT high if you think about it. It could have been worse. You could have been a Belgian citizen.
- Pull some more pranks on my sister. In my house, April Fools’ Day is every day.
- Listen to my favorite songs on repeat for the remainder of the day.
- Pop in an episode of Star Trek and watch while drinking hot chocolate with a ton of marshmallows. Yum. Worf can come rescue me any day.
I feel better already.
Screw you, bad day! You do not own me!
