Ugh

[cjsmith]

I'm in one of my "Why bother?" moods.

Over the past few days I've had several interactions with people wherein I've tried my best to be polite and understanding and I've gotten back condescension, insults, sneers, and veiled accusations that I was lying. No specific incident was way out of the ordinary. It's simply that there's been a lot of it lately.

I need a more pleasant counter-viewpoint saying "not all people are jerks, really." An antidote of sorts. But I'm not sure where to look for it.

That last sentence is pretty darn sad.

Time of year? Phase of the moon?

I thought of phase of the *month*, but with the new hormones I'm still not quite sure when that is. :-)

I dunno, but I hope you have at least one day soon when every interaction is friendly and warm, to counteract this ickiness.

Thank you, Kathy! Your comment here is definitely stacking up on the 'friendly and warm' side.

So come out tonight and visit? I have to bathe a cat (I am an idiot, but I have to bathe a cat) and your company is always welcome.

Thank you! I have a sewing group thingy tonight. Bathing a cat sounds a little more adventuresome... hope it goes well for both you and cat! :)
