One of those days...

Between my optimism and compulsive need to rationalize everything out, I feel like it takes a lot to make me grumpy. But today was one of those days.

That East Coast storm is hitting DC; granted not as badly as it's hitting other parts of the country, but it was coming down pretty hard and it was really windy. Though I really didn't want to leave my apartment, I forced myself to go to a review video over at GW law because I couldn't make the showing at American next week.

To make a long story short, after walking half a mile in the pseudo-hurricane with a partially broken umbrella and sitting through 3 hours of videos that I really didn't need so I could get to the subjects I really needed help with, they didn't have the video with the last 2 hours. This company has two jobs, bringing the videos and playing them; it's not that hard! For those people who claim that everything works out for me, here is an example of when it doesn't.

Now my optimistic/rational self would say: this isn't such a big deal, plus you still got a lot of work done. But every once in a while I'll let myself be human and feel those negative emotions. I mean really, who likes coming home soggy?

PS. I am actually fine now after having a funny conversation with my mom about family news/gossip. I knew it wasn't possible for me to stay grumpy too long.
