(Not) Thinking Good Thoughts

Alright, Ms J. Let's think about something positive. I've had enough doom and gloom for a while. And anger. We're all entitled to our bitter feelings now and then, but it's good to be aware of them and to take care not to get mired in misery for too long.

Well, ... The flowers need the rain. So do hay crops and grains. Environment Canada is predicting "dry, sweltering conditions" this summer for much of the ...

Oops. Sorry about that.

I have a new air conditioner, don't I? That'll keep me cool at home. Electricity prices have taken a huge jump though, so I'd better use my A/C sparingly. I can't believe the bastards at Toronto Hydro ...

Right. I'm doing it again, aren't I?

Hmmmm. Something positive. Something good and upbeat. Something to feel happy about. Let me think a minute, Ms J.

The play we're still writing is ... er, opening ... in four weeks.

Sigh. This is hard some mornings, isn't it?

Well I have my health, haven't I? Two good arms and two good legs. No hair. And a big, fat belly.

OK. You know what? I'm going to leave this for a while. I'll have a warm bath, with bubbles and scented candles. A nice hot cup of tea. Then maybe a wee kip. I'll try again later.
