Went to the gym last night and gotta love those endorphyns. I was in a much better mood last night.
Unfortunately today, while I’m still in better mental space, I have a bit of a fever and a cough and a headache.

I know I have to just get over it, but today I’m in such a foul mood. Yesterday was the crying and weeping part of “dealing with it.” Today is the “please don’t talk to me, I’m too pissed to deal with you” part. I said sometime earlier this month that I wasn’t going to [...]

What’s worse than spending your weekend alone at work?
Answer: freezing to death while doing it. The A/C in my part of the building is totally whack. I’m freezing worse than normal. I finally found the closest thermostat to my cube. See blurry cell phone photo as evidence:
