Are you feeling quiet and like shit today?

No, not today. It does happen to me sometimes, which can be a big problem when I have to go to class, or teach class. I try to focus on my breathing and remember my goals and try to remember the kind of person I want to be.

Actually yes, synchronized irritability.
I have been sick for 2 weeks with a sinus infection that is still not gone, I have also been going through a shit breaking phase. Plumbing problems, car trouble, broken appliances, and am extremely bummed about my finances right now. Being the normally optimistic type when I get like this it really sucks.I have to be careful as I have little patience for bullshit right now, at all. lol
When Coloma gets grumpy her usual humor can turn to razor sharp, no-nonsense, I will fillet you like a wounded tiger. lol

Not today, but this recent Sunday, yes. I have days like that—I just stay quiet and work really hard at keeping my mean thoughts inside my head, away from my mouth.

Sometimes I’ll just say, “I have a headache,” and that usually gets people to leave me alone. I stay on the computer, read a book, take a nap—anything to avoid having to apologize later for whatever I say or do that day.

Ironically, often those days are the days I’m hysterically funny. The cynicism and edge seems to sharpen my wit.

Do you want to get out of it? Spend a few moments being thankful for the good things in your life. I hope you feel better soon, @Adirondackwannabe.

If I feel like shit it usually makes me feel sad and depressed, not mean. I guess I can be kind of shitty with others. If I find myself feeling this way it’s usually best that I stay away from social media and do other things I enjoy.

I have been bummed quite a bit lately because my daughter has been sick and missed the past 5 school days. She’s also had a cough for over a month due to bronchitis. She woke up today in a great mood, put on a Santa hat and went to school. That put me in a great mood!

I had that yesterday, thank goodness not today. I hate those days, I wish I could cancel them.

How did you guess?

I am very cold and can’t muster up any energy. This is making me cranky! I’m just trying to keep myself to myself until it passes.

I felt though I should add I never actually like shit!!

I think it’s refreshing to see the use of swear words allowed in question titles & look forward with great anticipation to see how long this trend shall continue.
No & no, would be my answer, to the original question that is..

@ucme here here!!

@ucme I forgot swear words weren’t allowed in the title. I remember this question that was asked by a mod at the time. She used a swear word initially, then had to change the title of the Q. Oh, how times have changed!

Oops, didn’t know swear words weren’t allowed. I’ll wait for the wrath of the mods to take me down.

@jonsblond I think that in the right context, there’s not a whole lot wrong with inserting the odd, mild expletive in there, as I say, we’ll see how long it lasts.

I’m not cranky, but yes, I’m very tired and feel like crud. My stomach is upset for no apparent reason. We’re supposed to go to a hockey game tonight and unless a post-work nap occurs, I’m pretty sure we’re staying home.

I handled it last night by watching ancient “Little House on the Prairie” episodes and weeping because I wish I could jump into that series. lol
I digress and go back to my childhood, strawberry milk and vintage TV shows.

I am always so thrilled to wake up and find I am 1) alive and 2) breathing in and out that I seem to be routinely cheerful Why fritter away any minutes that are left to me? There may be 20 years and there may be only now.

Decades of fretting and worrying accomplished nothing. They did not slow time down and they did not avert the heartwrenching events.

The bad outcome with my sister has left me feeling pretty bummed out.

Not particularly. I was tired this morning as I didn’t sleep that well, but I was out with a crazy friend last night, who introduced me to the bartender as his best friend. He’s an incredibly sarcastic guy, but call me foolish, I believe he meant it.

So I was able to push myself on my ride to work this morning. Some days my body has the power to push. Others, not. Some days I can deal easily with the cold. Others it kills me. I don’t know what has changed from last year to this, but I am grateful.

No. I’m kinda feeling powerful today. It’s pretty cool!

Well I have my usual headache, perhaps some coffee would help with that.
Atleast I didn’t start my day hunched over the toilet hurling like I did yesterday..

Well, I’m trying a new medication that has me feeling very nauseated and sleepy, so I’m pretty irritable right now. UGH.

I’m sorry you’re feeling poorly, too. (((HUGS))) for you.

Today? More like every day!

Thanks for asking

Not quiet and feeling like shit. I do have a pretty stressful situation going on in the background but I am trying to keep in mind that it is outside my control so I don’t feel like shit about it! Otherwise, it’s a beautiful day and I am nearly on holiday so I can’t complain!

Yes I’m shoveling snow like a mad man only to find out another four inches a little later. Tired the roads aren’t plowed and work is a drag…

My feet and gloves are wet and it will be -30 below by this weekend… I didn’t mind the first three days of snow… but man..

But holy toledo grave robbers.

OK having said that I feel better.

I am seriously feeling like shit today.

Just a depressing morning. I found out last night that my youngest son was robbed by knifepoint the other night. He’s not hurt, but the guy took all of his money. It wasn’t much, but it was all he had. He’s a broke college student. Oh, and our water heater is taking a shit. I have no hot water right now, so I’m boiling water to do dishes and wash my hair. Then a guy from the water company knocked on the door and told me we need to check for a leak because we are using twice as much water as normal.

Then there’s this deadly shooting this morning at a grade school (a freakin’ grade school!!!) in Connecticut. All I want to do is have all my kids home right now and hug them. What a sad morning. :/

sorry for the rant.

@jonsblond Awww…so sorry about your son, and, I am not EVEN going to read about the school shooting, I don’t need to know. Since I don’t have TV and only watch DVD’s I am safe from the barrage of media negativity, just the way I like it.

@Coloma He’s handling it well, but I worry. I think I’m going to get off the computer because the story is everywhere. Time to put some Christmas music on and finish decorating the house. :)

@jonsblond Good idea! Have some eggnog for me. I am heading out into the fffrrrreeeezing day, because I have to. lol

Man, I sure had one of those today. Mostly situational factors. I had the whole day to stay at home and do work, but I could barely get any done. I woke up feeling overwhelmed and physically anxious, and barely got anything done. Hope tomorrow will be better.

Actually a bit yes. I’m headachy and have a temperature. My State has gone from extreme heat to extreme flooding. I have been watching a mother and father bird building a nest and waiting for the baby bird to arrive. I noticed it pop its bald, beaky head up one day and was so excited – then it was dead. Have seen two snakes in the last week (after only seeing two in 11 years here!). Had a frustrating bit of news about my work. Thank goodness tomorrow is a new day!

Feel like I’m dying today :(
