I hate being cranky. As of yesterday, I have officially decided that I would rather be weepy than cranky (apparently, in my current circle of friends, these are the two most viable emotional options), and I have been cranky for, oh, about 4 days now. @#$(*&!!
Contributing factors to current crankiness:- Winter storms every other flipping day.
- A car with only one working headlight
- Lack of exercise
- Frustration with current internship
- Ever-present homework
- Realization that only God can heal other people
- Messy bedroom
- Resentment of my need for sleep. period.
- Frustration with my own laziness
- Trash needing to be taken out. Again.
- My obsession with sugar.
- Life's annoying details. Like money.
- My own crankiness!
Well, cathartic as such a list can be, I'm still cranky. But Lent is coming. As funny as it sounds, I absolutely love Lent! It's amazing how junk builds up in my life over the course of a year (or a month, or a day), and I love this season of the church year -- a time to regain focus, to repent, to be cleansed more deeply, to meditate, to bring my frustrations and despair to the Lord.
Two (cranky days) left before Ash Wednesday...
