Frick and Frack

Things have been less than stellar lately. I've been doing my best to manage and not lose my shit on my coworkers or loved ones. Therefore, I've been spending more time alone-though I'm not sure it's helping. A long weekend away was supposed to help, but ultimately, it didn't. I came home feeling a bit more stressed out and wound up than when I left.

It's strange to realize your attitude sucks and keeping it in check, as opposed to being freely angsty and telling others off at any given opportunity. I'm currently at an impasse. I don't know what to do other than bide my time and ride out the bullshit, even though the bullshit seems to keep piling up.

I'm still able to realize and appreciate the good around me and enjoy the little things as they come up. A hug from a friend today watching my Seattle Sounders stomp the Portland Toothpicks into the ground tonight helped immensely. That will always help.

However, I'm still angry, and I'm working really hard on not being angry anymore. I'm definitely attempting the, "Do no harm, but take no shit" approach. Let's see how it goes.
