This isn’t some kind of reverse bodily waste management technique. Sickos.
For the last three days, I’ve been pissed off. About what I can’t say. Your guess is as good as mine.
Today was no better and it really affected things. My heart rate was up a bit, I was short with people all day long, my work quality suffered, and I felt like death warmed over. A pleasant experience for everyone, no doubt.
I feel much better now. Can’t say why any better than why I was pissed. Maybe it was three (drop-dead, why-aren’t-they-models, proof-that-God-exists-and-wants-us-to-be-happy) gorgeous women who were much more happy to see me than normally each on their own occasion this afternoon and evening. Maybe it was singing a beautiful piece of music conducted by its composer and finding that I was on the right track for his style, but still not even close to the depth he saw in the text. Maybe it was finishing off a box of Thin Mints. Maybe…
I think it’s okay to not know what’s made us angry. Part of me that likes to fix things so they don’t happen again. I think a lot of people are like that. No one likes to be angry or hurt and avoiding that takes a good bit of our time and energy.
I’ll take not being angry over knowing why I’m angry, though.

Sometimes knowing why we’re angry can tell us more about ourselves and what really gets under our skins. Plus if you start taking it out on others they will definitely want to know why you’re so peeved with them. But I agree that there are just times when we are more easily pissed off than others that we can’t really explain. I think it was the Thin Mints that cured it. Chocolate is always a good mood stabilizer. Thank god for Girl Scouts!
