Cranky!


Thought of the moment; I’m cranky

And not just any sort of normal cranky – no, this is something like “you stopped giving me oral just before I was about to come” kind of cranky, or “you got off and rolled over and went to sleep and left me laying here” kind of cranky, or “you said the dinner I worked all day cooking for you was too salty” kind of cranky.

Too salty? Too salty? Fuck you! Who do I look like? Rachel Ray? Make your own goddamn dinner next time you ungrateful prick!

(as she throws the plate of food at his head…)

No – none of these things actually happened… just my ever twirling love affair with analogy and metaphor playing itself out as I try and reconcile my evolving levels of cranky today.

I haven’t been sleeping well – that could be it. I keep waking up in the middle of the night and then can’t fall back to sleep so I get up and go into my office and turn on my computer and my television and I watch re-runs of the X-Files or some lame Lifetime movie or whatever movie that I’ve already seen on HBO or the late re-broadcast of Hardball on MSNBC – the latter which always makes me cranky.

Fucking Clintons. The Clintons make me very cranky.

I even got into a cyberfight with someone today too. It probably wasn’t their fault… who knows…

My hosting company is making me cranky too. They recently moved my site to what they described as:

“a more powerful and more stable server… very good for devotchka like you mizz lazy geiszha… ha-ha-ha… Nostrovia!”

Fucking Ukranians. My site has gone down every day for the last four days for at least a ½ hour. Put down the Stoli, Sergey… and fix this shit! Grr!!!!

That would make anyone cranky – especially me. Patton was right – we should have kept marching.

Tho I’m not so much of a bitch not to acknowledge that this could all be hormonal – but that isn’t it. That might actually make sense. You think PMS is easy? Don’t get me started.

Someone sent me this; the Nadsat dictionary here from the novel A Clockwork Orange. Personally, I thought the film was better. But this is still funny - even tho I’m too cranky to appreciate it.

But – it’s a beautiful sunny day, the Red Sox beat the Yankees last night, and there’s absolutely no reason in the world what-so-ever to explain my bout of the grouchies.

Life of a woman indeed. Maybe I need some Lubbilubbing…

Enjoy your weekend

neaya,

:lol: Well - the Red Sox are beating the Texas Rangers 9-1 in the bottom of the 4th and David Ortiz hit a grand slam in the 3rd — so it’s hard to stay cranky after that!

Thanks for the Happy Vibes hon!

I’ve been kinda cranky to lately, my landlord is pissing me off, I have a huge projet to present in less than a week and every time I practice it in front of m co-workers it gets ass raped and then I find myself putting it back together on the weekends ughh…then I have a wedding in AK after the presentation, then after my residency is done I have to find an F’n job else where! LoL I guess i’m more stressed than anything…but I guess I understand where your coming from!

take a deep breath!

I think I am hormonal, though didn’t realise that’s what it was till I read this entry..

Have spent most of the morning in tears and feeling well and truly unwanted, which the rational part of knows is not true.

Worst thing about being hormonal is that I have things I could do to snap out of it, but i’m not sure I want to.

:(

Euuuhhhhh. Rachel Ray? She can’t cook a lick! If you can’t cook better than her, then you should be cooking naked.

Hi Ryan,

Well - it sounds like you’ve got a lot going on in your life! Stress, as I’m sure you know, will certainly lead to one feeling cranky! :lol:

Tho I do thank you for commiserating with my misery yesterday… :razz:

I got some sleep and realized that it was probably all hormonal and that I just needed to unplug for a little while. Feeling much better today tho!

Something else — yoga I’ve found is really helpful to me in maintaining balance - but we’re all human, kwim? Every once in a while we all have a bad day!

Hope yours get better!

nina

Pegxx,

Oh I’m sorry honey! I feel you…

I’m sorry that you’re feeling so down, but I’m quite sure that you’re not unwanted. Take a deep breath and let this pass - it will, trust me.

Tho I do completely understand this:

“Worst thing about being hormonal is that I have things I could do to snap out of it, but i’m not sure I want to.”

I had to laugh… because it’s just soooo true. :lol:

Here — I’ll send you some kisses from across the sea…

(kiss-kiss)

Try and feel better hon - (when you’re ready to…)

dinsdale_piranha,

Now as for You, my dear… you had better learn how to duck! :lol:

nina

[...] and that means shopping and errands and probably working in the yard now that my crankiness here has subsided, and I hope I answered your question dear unnamed [...]

Nina-

Glad to read that you are feeling better. Have a nice weekend.

saratoga,

Thank you… yes, I am feeling better.

Enjoy your weekend too. ;)

just love the word, “cranky.”

did you know it is also used of boats
inclined to heel over easily under sail?

larokkaku,

lmao! Um, I did! Father was a Navy man after all.

“On Dutch ships of yore, however, cranky, from the Dutch word krengd, referred to a sailing ship that was deemed unstable.”

You wouldn’t be suggesting that women are unstable now would you?? :lol:

Tho - all things considered — it’s probably an accurate description of my mood on Friday!

‘Easily Tipped Over’ ;)

nina

women unstable?
“easily tipped over?”
good heavens, no?!
(wink back at’cha)

just noting that where
a cancerian might have
been expected to use “crabby,”
the water-baby part won out
and went for “cranky.”
besides, it just sounds so much better.

(is it possible to underline or do italics
in this comment box? you seem to be able
to do it at will. “administrative privilege,” I suppose.)

larokkaku,

Check your email - I sent you some HTML formatting codes which work here in geishaland!

:lol: Yes well - this cancer baby knows her words! I never quite liked “crabby” especially when “cranky” says so much more!

Tho not always so easily tipped over!
