How to completely change an attitude

The drive to work was awful. Idiots were coming out of the woodwork all over the place, and deliberately trying to make my commute a living hell. It didn't help that I'd left the apartment 10 minutes later than I normally do, and every reroute I tried only made things worse. I was, in a nutshell, rather pissy when I pulled into the parking lot.

How did this change?

When I walked into Walnut Center (the building where I work), the large, imposing, ridiculously masculine security guard bid me good morning, then paused, looked me up and down, and said "dude, are you losing weight? You look fantastic!"

Impeachment, and sewing

Headline, if the media would ever cover this: "House GOP blocks Democrats' attempt to stop impeachment bill."

In other news, I finished my messenger bag, or "man bag" on Sunday. It's made out of cream and golden brown denim, and when the flap is closed is a display of my heraldry. I'll have pictures up soon.
