Maybe I’m fratchy because of the heat.
Or maybe because we’ve been home several weekends in a row and I’m getting itchy feet.
Maybe it’s because someone was condescending at work today.
Maybe because I was late due to last minute doggie piddle and also SLOW SLOW SLOW GOD THEY ARE SO SLOW drivers on my commute, a whole train of ‘em. And since I was late I don’t get to take my lunch break and go to the gym.
Maybe it’s because despite my thrice a week gym regimen + long run on weekends + two mile evening walks + no beer or alcohol during the week (unless it’s an EMERGENCY,) I’m still getting fatter. The scale says no change, but the pants, they don’t fit. The shirt, she too small. Surveying my closet for an acceptable outfit is an exercise in low self esteem.
Maybe I am sick of my job today, just a little bit.
Maybe I’m worried about my career’s short term prospects.
Maybe I’m tired from the added burden of Virgil the Wonder Pee, I mean Dog.
Maybe it’s because I’m listening to Gene Wilder’s memoirs right now – and they’re all about his pursuit of an acting career, his relentless and untiring search for roles, for classes, for training, for experience. Although I like it – it makes me feel like I gave up on the artist in me without even trying. Gene Wilder is making me feel guilty about my corporate career. Jerk.
Maybe it’s because I have no good reason to be grumpy, and that makes me grumpier, like who are you to tell me I have no good reason to be grumpy? Listen up self, I can be grumpy whenever I darn well please. Grumpy could be my middle name if I wanted it to be. I wouldn’t even have to change my middle initial.
Definitely the heat. Yo, my buddy Dean? Will you bring us some rain up here in Carolina? Because right now sweaty smothery August is kicking my butt.

Wow, someone turn on the light \’cuz it\’s dark up in here 😉
It\’s late now – so I hope your day turned brighter, or, um, here are best wishes for tomorrow.
By the by – I am falling in love with your puppy…the pictures are Just Too Cute and he sounds like such a little doll – all fumbly and young (and yeah, pee-y). I\’m glad the cat has accepted him and their morning game of catch cracks me up!
I hear you on the clothes not fitting thing! I weighed myself whilst in Indiana this past weekend and I am far heavier than I thought I was! Not quite the uplifting moment I was hoping for. As I up my mileage, I am more hungry, so I am eating more. Is that the cause? Or is the world just evil? I\’m going with the evil world theory for now. Things will slim down. I have no doubt. I think it\’s the season.

Oh if only she realized.
