When Your Day Requires Attitude Adjustment
When one is beleaguered by circumstances
beyond control and your daily
schedule flies out the window into never-never-land, and nothing gets completed on time … it
causes an attitude …
Frustrated by technology, computers, and life
in general, by mid-afternoon yesterday I loudly vituperated, realizing I had
no hope that this week’s Wordplay
Wednesday would live up to its name.
So hopefully, you, like I, learned a new word
this “Throttle-My-Computer Thursday” which reminds you it’s Five O’clock Somewhere
and life’s too short for prolonged vituperation.
By the time I made
adjustments to my pc’s skewed settings, cleaned out its lazy innards and
restarted the beast, it was Happy Hour.
Once you realize you’re hopelessly mired in
sh*t, use whatever method works for you to give yourself an “Attitude Adjustment.” Click
on the title and let Hank Williams Jr. sing you into a smile. The first minute
of relief is worth the effort.
If necessary, remember (after your first sip
of libation) to apologize to those to whom you spoke vituperatively, and
soldier on. This too, shall pass.
Word Challenge: VITUPERATE.
An attitude you sometimes can’t avoid; but react to it mindfully as
you fit vituperate into your week of frustrated writings.
Write first for
yourself … only then can you write for others. (L.Rochelle)
