Rough day

I'm having another one of my what's-the-point days. I can't see the point of doing ANYthing. And all the little bad things of a probably-otherwise-pretty-normal day are seeming magnified now. I had a conversation at lunch today wherein it would have been okay had I either known what I was talking about or shut up, but I did neither, so I feel bad about that. There's someone I know who did something that ticked me off, and now that, for the first time ever in our acquaintance, I have let him know (politely, I thought) that I was angry, *poof* I haven't heard from him in a week and a half, and on a day like today, that sort of thing bothers me. Even when my cat tries to scratch at the furniture, today I'm getting annoyed all out of proportion.

Days like this SUCK.

Interview Questions

Last seen in the journal of anisoptera, this is apparently called the Shower Meme, because its originator thought it up while working on the car... no, in the shower, of course! Want to be interviewed? Leave a comment here saying so, and I'll reply with five questions.

Here are my answers to the questions anisoptera asked me.

1)What plane do you dream you could fly?

A Pitts S-2C! The S-2C's elder brother, the S-2B, is just about as good. Small, powerful, feisty, and aerobatic... flying this plane is like walking a dog that is big and strong and eager but not really quite trained yet. I've had one flight in an S-2C. That was a demo flight for a potential sale, 'way back when stock prices were high. Some day. Some day. :-)

2)What would make you happy right this minute?

Hmm, not sure. Maybe a hug?

3)What is your favorite article of clothing?

There's my favorite that I wear all the time - JEANS! Or my favorite that makes me really feel like I look good - a summery cotton dress with buttons from the neckline to the hem. Or my favorite that makes it possible for me to do stuff - my jogbra. ;-) I guess I'll go with jeans!

4)What do read for secret fun?

For fun I read a random variety of fantasy and science fiction, with a few romances thrown in. None of that is very secret though.

5)What historial or fictional figure would like to meet?

Victoria Woodhull ("The Woman Who Ran for President"). Mostly ignored even today, because contemporaries such as Susan B didn't like her. I figure she had guts.

I must be a Real Backpacker now!

I'm going to have a BEAR CANISTER. (Free, from a friend paring down the schtuff in her garage.) This means I can go to the Sierras! Woohoo!
