Watching the morning news over a cup of coffee this morning, the weatherperson announced severe storms would be descending on the area this afternoon. That should have been my clue how the day would unwind.I'm generally cheerful. I usually bound out of bed brightly every morning, chit chat amiably with everyone whose path I cross and try to put a good face on most situations. Today that went out of the window. Like the gathering storm that was moving north and east over the course of the day, my foul temper gathered comparable momentum. I tried to keep it in check although flashes of storminess peeked through when I least expected it. I was downright cranky at points, in fact, and I really hate myself this way. I'm not even sure what to blame it on. Hormones? Well, I am at that bewitching age. The nasty weather? Could be. Just a bad day? Let's hope so. At any rate, I'll now have to be doubly pleasant to people tomorrow just to compensate for a particularly off day.
A perfect denouement to the day? The storm the weatherperson predicted on the morning news never actually materialized...until I got in the car to drive home. And I'll leave it at that.

Should I comment? I don't know, I'm scared. Is she still cranky? Not taking any chances, I'm getting out of here. ;)
Wasn't only me then! Seems like everyone was in a really crappy mood today. I should have known, my horoscope started with 'When the going gets tough today..'. What about that for a clue. :-)
Don't bite anyone tomorrow C&W. haha
Mercury is in retrograde again, and it's a bad one, especially for us Pisces, Zen.
My day from hell was Sunday, though. And thanks, CW, for the sweet email. :-)

Fang is also a Pisces, Jules, along with you and Zen Man. He is having a particularly foul week also, so I'm down with the retrograde theory.
I hope the week is starting to improve, Jules. You've been in my thoughts and I'm sending a hug down south to you. Stay strong, girl.
While I was the foulest of foul of Monday, I did make affectionate amends today to those innocent souls I may have harmed in my Monday state. Easy going folks that they are--I think I am forgiven.
Today was much improved and spent with people I enjoy so I am encouraged this week will end on a better note than it started.
And to Zen--what's wrong with biting? Some people like that, you know.
