Here's a nice peaceful icon to calm you down. I'm sorry the day started off so badly ... I hope everything goes up from this point on!

I was going to say 'scorpions are peaceful now?' but then I realized it's actualy a waterfowl reflected in the watter.

It really looks like a funny-tailed scorpion at first glance, though.

*chuckle* It's the Goose Scorpion! 8-) (Or maybe the Duck Scorpion. Hard to tell.) Very rare. Endangered. Its honk is worse than its sting.

Hehe ... I never thought of that! It's a detail from a picture I took two years ago. If you look at the complete photo (http://flyaway.smugmug.com/gallery/93730/1/3293871) (and the others taken at the same time) you won't see a scorpion any more, just a Canada goose silhouetted in the light of the setting sun. :-)

Aw, thank you! Things have improved at least a little. My boss sent me a pretty sharp e-mail, and while I thought I deserved a reminder, I didn't think I deserved the "slap". But now I see who he's REALLY ticked at -- with reasonable cause -- and I think I just caught a bit of fallout. Bearable. :-)

It's still unpleasant to have someone take their anger out on you when it's not your fault ... but it's still a relief to find out that you didn't cause the anger after all!

Here, have some virtual chocolate and a hug!

Yeah, it is -- but I *did* deserve a polite rebuke, so it wasn't that bad. And thanks VERY much for the virtual chocolate and hug! Virtual chocolate doesn't even mess with my blood sugar, yay! :-) *hugsback*!

Mondays. Bah.

Hope things improve for you later today. And if not, well, Monday only comes once a week. Heh.

Perfect icon!

Yeah, definitely improving. No snarky e-mails in several hours now. Yay!
