Blogger, Heal Thyself
Friends, I am in a cranky mood today. Why? Well I don't think there is one specific cause, really. It could be that I woke up before 8 a.m. today in an effort to start preparing myself for the return to school hours. Or it could be the pile of stuff I have to do before September rolls in, which I have avoided today by taking shelter at the parents house in NH. Or it might even have something to do with being the teensiest bit lonely with The Boy now once again six hours away.

Whatever the source of this random perturbedness, I'm going to try a little experiment in catharthic blogging today and write about all the reasons I should not be cranky, ok? Some people can talk themselves out of anything, we're going to see if I can write myself into a better mood. Like shiatsu of the mind, if you will. Working out the kinks. Without the searing pain to my limbs.

Right. Here we go:
First, the weather is gorgeous, too bright and pretty to sustain any crankiness for long. For a real crank run I would need drizzly cold rain or humid jungle heat, something to really add to the misery. This sunny, clear, and cool shizzy can only improve my mood. Second, I walked to Harvard Square this morning and I had my first feeling that it was really good to be back. Third, I got myself a bean and cheese burrito that was sublime. Sublime, I tell you. Fourth, I am going to go for a canoe ride with my Padre on a pretty lake by their house. Fifth, I am finally going to see my sister's new little kittens (hopefully they're not full-grown cats by now), and also going to see my little man Aidan. Sixth, all the friends that were missing me while I was away are coming out of the woodwork to hang out; it feels pretty good to know I was missed. Seventh, I played Guitar Hero this morning and rocked Iron Man pretty hardcore. Eighth, my all-time favorite event is coming up. Ninth, I found a new phone charger at the junk store in Davis for $4.99. So what if it looks like it fell off the back of a truck? And finally (tenth, if you're counting), I know it won't be long before things get settled in and all the moving will be done, which is way exciting.
Hmm... I think I do actually feel a little better! Damn, I'm good.

P.S.- This helped a bit, too.

"all the moving will be done"??? Is it true? Are you moving to Denver!!!??? hmm...just wishful thinking on my part, I guess.

Denver or bust, Meg! (just kidding- but I wish you'd move back this way.)
Kir- one thing is certain, blogger is dumb. I just don't have the time to fiddle with my own site and coding and everything...
