Hi! Life sucks. How the heck did I get in this mood? I was fine just the other day, and suddenly I’m pissed off. Damn! ---

BTW, I’d have put this post in the Pit if I could come up with some tangible reason why everything sucks thus giving me something specific to complain about, but as is it just seems mundane and pointless. ---

Poor baby. Here, have a red slurpee and it will all seem better. ---

I don’t want a red slurpee. I don’t have the capacity for pleasure right now that would be required to receive enjoyment from slurpee drinking. Besides, it would turn my mouth all red and that’s just annoying. And what if I spilled it all over my work clothes? Then what? I gotta get home and start drinking. ---

Why am I feeling like this? This sucks. Maybe it was Swiddles’ thread which reminded me how much I hate my job. Thanks a lot Swiddles. I’m not bringing anyone down am I? ---
