They&#8217;re nice and it&#8217;s always good to talk to them, but it took a serious chunk of time out of my day, putting me even further behind at work. And that means I <em>have<\/em> to work this weekend.<\/li>\n<li>Thanks to the cats (who are determined to keep me up certain nights), the energy-saver feature on the AC (which makes horrible, loud liquid noises at regular intervals), allergy attacks, and screeching 4 a.m. trains, I haven&#8217;t gotten a good night&#8217;s sleep yet this week.<\/li>\n<li>I was late getting out for my walk. I was distracted and needed to get my thoughts organized, so it was a bad day for someone to try to chitchat with me. I wasn&#8217;t feeling social, and I just assumed the guy was hitting on me. So not only was I cranky because I didn&#8217;t get my solo nature-communing time, but then I also felt bad later for thinking the worst when he may just have been friendly. God forbid that someone be friendly with the woman who doesn&#8217;t have a single friend in town!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Clearly I need to decrank. How will I accomplish that? Well, first I&#8217;m going to try again to get some sleep. In the morning, I&#8217;m going to buy some Coldplay tickets, which will give me something to look forward to. Then I&#8217;m going to attempt something that, if I&#8217;m successful, will amaze you. Yes, it will amaze! Then, with that trio of successes having put me in a better mood, I will sit down to work and finish up my magazine, and being done with the magazine will put me on top of the world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I don&#8217;t know what put me in such a bad mood today.
