Bad mood

I'm. In. A. Bad. Mood. Have you ever had one of those days where there is not a specific trigger, no particular precipitant but you still felt so irritable? A day when Limp Bizkit's "Break Stuff" seems apropos. Ripping some one's head off feels like it wouldn't suffice. An intense and possibly violent response to an invisible provocation is warranted on these days.

It's one of those mornings where wherever you go, whomever you see, whatever you do you're...annoyed. That coworker who comes in whistling "Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah" every morning, the underling who lies in wait for your arrival and upon seeing your "online" status immediately starts bombarding you with complaints, the man who shoves past you in the elevator... You just want to smash them in the face. As your day begins and you interact with them you actually envision punching them in the face. And though that image is briefly gratifying, your bad mood persists.

There is no remedy for one of these bad days. All you can hope for is that you can successfully ride it out without a major incident...or injury.
