Okay, I Am Mr. Crabpants Today

I don't think I rolled out of the wrong side of the bed because I sleep on the same side of the bed every night and if I had rolled out of my wife's side I'd know it. I'd have felt her there and she'd have slugged me for rolling over her.
Could it be I am traveling on business and don't want to be? Maybe that's it. Or I am just crabby today. But days like this annoy me.
I ran into lots of construction, inoperable gas pumps, excessively long poopers into single occupant restroooms, rest stops with no water and closed doors, and on single lane highways had every possible slow moving semi imaginable.
Plus, I was in no mood to see or talk to customers. I hope it did not show.
Either way, I am crabby. I woke up that way. My whole day was that way. And I am crabby right here and now. Just crabby.
Bite me and I will see you on the other side. Hopefully in a much better mood.

Tomorrow is another day. Hopefully a better one.
Keep your eyes on the weather reports later this week.

I hope you'll be in a much better mood tomorrow. I know I would be crabby if I rolled out of the wrong side of my bed because then I would slam into the shelves on the wall on the other side of my bed and that would hurt,

This made me smile. Everyone has their crabby days. You will get along somehow - eventually. Just wing it. People say, "Just wing it until you make it." Life would be boring if you always have a good day. Enjoy your bad day and I hope you will have a better day tomorrow.

Everybody has days like this, which started off wrong and keep on the same track the whole day.

I, too, have been crabby all day today. It all started this morning when my alarm went off and I didn't want to get up for work. And then it just snowballed from there. Now I'm home trying to relax and unwind, but still find myself in a crabby mood. I guess I'm just tired and need to go to bed.

@porwest I am the same way. Grumpy days are a rarity for me. Most of the time I am in good moods, or at worst, in neutral moods. But for the most part...good moods.

@moffittjc I try not to take too much too seriously. It helps to be less grumpy.

Hopefully the travel woes have all happened and are in the past and you will be able to take it smoothly the rest of the day. I hate days like that.

I too oftenly find myself in such scenario. I hope this is condition that attacks some people occasionally. I normally take nothing to fix that. It completely disapears by itself.
