Lack of grump

[cjsmith]

It was very strange to watch the end of my bad mood. I went through a few stages in rapid succession: grumpy, grumpy and aware of it, grumpy and patiently waiting for it to pass, grumpy and kind of amused by it... then I went immediately to "what a great day, let's get some work done". And that was before food! Food didn't do this one!

Emotions can be pretty darn weird. Speaking of which, there's no mood icon for befuddled.

Yep. Being conscious of one’s emotional state, listening to the fact that you are feeling something, listening to what it is, and not fighting with yourself about it, makes it possible for that part of you to say "OK, I’ve been heard, I can put this down now".

Yup, I think there was a goodly dose of that going on here. Also, the grumpy part was plain worn out; I'd been grumpy for a good day and a half, this time. Hah: I outlasted it. ;-)
