Man . . .

. . . am I glad I don't live in a place that suffers hurricanes. And we are so lucky we got in and out of Cancun before those windy storms started hitting! I haven't actually seen reports of Cancun getting hit, but the weather was looking questionable as we were leaving and it was just the start of hurricane season -- which I didn't even realize until after we'd made our reservations. How much would it suck to be on vacation and get stuck in a hurricane?! Awful. I just heard my first "Dennis the Menace" reference. Bring on the T-shirts.

I also saw a news story that chronic anger and hostility may make you sick. Is this really news? Seems like a given. Still, I need to work on my attitude. I'm a little angry and hostile that I have to go to work today -- I've been sick all weekend! I still don't feel great today, but I'm gonna drag my sorry butt in anyway. Guess I'd better take a shower, considering I need to leave in half an hour.

The garage door is still giving us problems. I got all irritated about it when I came back from a quick jaunt to the grocery store last night and swung my purse into it on my way into the house. Sounded like I shot someone. Kind of surprised the neighbor 2 doors down didn't call the police the way they were looking at me. Fuck 'em. That damned garage door is a piece of crap! Maybe it'll refuse to let me out this morning so I can stay home. Probably not.

Here they go with the hurrican stories again. Would you just go with the flow and board up your windows every year? I can't even imagine.
