relief

There will be no punching of faces. Whew.

It seems this blog is turning into a bit of a whine-fest, sorry for those of you who came here for fun & frivolity. All none of you.

I need the catharsis at the moment so it'll probably continue in this vein for a while. Which is, as I think I've pointed out before, not to say that my life is an unremitting cycle of malaise and melancholy. I've had a lot of fun over the last couple of months and there have been times of great happiness and, even more important, quiet contentment.

Of course none of that makes it onto my miseryblog - who wants to read about someone having fun? It's all about the schadenfreude, and I am the schadenfreudiest. Come! See my emotional pratfalls! Be amused and feel better about your life!

One of my favourite quotes from I don't know where is "if you are unable to be a good example you have an obligation to be a horrible warning". This is my warning to the world. Not sure what I'm warning against tho.

Perhaps just a general “Don’t Do This”.

And: “Watch out! There’s a BEAR behind you! RUN!”

Don't do this is a very good warning. The only problem is that as soon as you say "Don't do this" then people automatically go and do it.

Which, at least, will provide some sort of sardonic amusement for myself. And misery loves company apparently.
