How do you get over a shitty day

Why do we have shitty days?

I got up this morning on the wrong side of the bed and I can tell you that things have gone down from there. I started doing site support before I had coffee or a piece of toast. I’m wondering if I had done things differently, maybe I’d be in a better mood.

Truthfully, I’m pretty much always in a good mood so the rare days that I have the can’t help its seem much worse than they really are. I’ve tried thinking a happy thought for 17 seconds and I smiled for 3 seconds and then I went right back to feeling pissy again.

Someone suggested that I should look at peaceful photographs. All I saw were pictures of places I’d like to visit — without me in them.

Someone else suggested that I meditate. How can you meditate when all you really want to do is throw rocks?

What are your tricks for getting out of a shitty mood?
