Ever want to crawl into a cave and shut out the world?

Today is one of those days I just want to crawl into a cave and pull a hibernating bear in after me. Ever get the feeling that someone is angry, annoyed, or otherwise teed off with you? It could be anyone or everyone in general. That’s how I feel today. Yesterday I was riding high. All was well in my corner of the orb. Then today, whamo, and the good feeling was gone. I wonder if it is hormonal? Probably not, since I am well past that phase of life. Could it be part of the phases of the Moon?  Currently the moon is waxing crescent, 6% of full (whatever that means). Maybe the tectonic plates are moving and creating a charge that has seeped into my brain. Usually when I get into one of these moods, I buy something for myself that I don’t need. I’m thinking, hmmmmmmm, new cell phone, new netbook with a built-in webcam, or a new mp3 player. Could there be a conspiracy among the sellers of computers and cell phones to put me into this mood with microwaves or other sinister “waves” so I will buy something electronic? Whew! There are so many possible causes, so many… I really think I’m just having my own personal “pity party”. There are lots of things that could drag me into the zone. There is nothing that monumentally catastrophic in my life to keep me stuck in a funk. My mom used to chant, “Nobody loves me, everybody hates me, I’m going out and eat worms.” That sums up my emotional state today.

Lunchtime:
I went to the Verizon Store to check out cell phones. Survived the trip without an upgrade to a new touch phone with internet. Went to Best Buys to look at the netbooks. Resisted their sales approach. Also checked out the iPods while I was there. My old mp3 player is still doing it for me, so I skirted that siren too. Guess this gloom will just have to wear off. It would help if it quit raining and snowing and we got some real sunshine for about a week. Climate change sucks!
