I'm having a hard time shaking a long-running cranky. Things that pissed me off in rapid succession this AM.
Pope gets huge headlines for saying he won't condemn gay priests. This dude has approximately the lowest bar in history to clear, given his predecessors. Let's see, I won't condemn someone for their inner thoughts. That raises me almost to the level of adult. It's sure as shit not adulation-worthy.
People emailing social lists saying "I'm 49 but I can pass for 32". Who gives a flying fuck? You may not look your age, but you should damn well act it. You want to date younger women? Whatever gets enthusiastic consent from your partners is OK by me. But, seriously, stop skeeving me out.
I think my problem is I have too high a standard for my fellow humans. And it's not even 9:45. Now to see if I can get through my day without cranking at my cow orkers.
ETA: took a brief walk, practicing my breathing exercises.
