It has been brought to my attention
that I've been in a pretty bad mood for almost two weeks. Apparently, my mood changes dramatically when we have bad weather and we've had two weeks of cold damp weather.

I'm sorry if I've snarked at anyone here.

It makes sense that my mood would be foul. I'm in a lot of pain when the weather if cold and damp. Pain = bad mood. That's not an excuse, just an explanation. I'm working on improving my mood. Chocolate in involved. :)

2. No apologies necessary.
The weather DOES affect people's moods. If it's crappy, day in and day out, it would be difficult NOT to be moody.

Yes, chocolate does help in these situations. :-)

4. Thank you.
Priyanka and I had a conversation recently about apologizing. I tend to apologize for the inconvenience my pain and disability causes other people. And then I apologize for apologizing too often. :P

Still, poor behavior does require an apology. So I do. It's nice that people understand. :)

21. Have some chocolate. You seem to be in a snarky mood.
No! Don't steal ThomCat's chocolate. My goodness, woman. Haven't you done enough to the poor man?
Bad! Bad Priyanka!

5. You didn't snark at me.
:hi:

Ironically, I hate sunny weather, and cold/damp weather makes me happy.

9. OMG, you're a freak!
:P

:hi:
I'm glad someone enjoys this weather.

I used to really enjoy walking in fog before I got hurt. So I guess I understand how bad weather can be enjoyable. I just don't have that option anymore.

14. And you deserve flowers.
I love receiving flowers, so I love giving them too. My gf knows that on any gift giving occassion I'll be perfect happy with a nice bouquet.

I know that is odd for a guy, but it's one of my quirks. :)

16. Who? you?
I didn't notice that, but then again I am oblivious most of the time.

I hope you are feeling better soon. I finally see a bit of sun here, which greatly affects my mood as well.

18. No snark in my direction
But I sure understand. Between light deprivation causing me to get a little down and the pain the damp weather causes, I get in the same boat.

Chocolate is an excellent prescription, though. :thumbsup:

20. There are a lot more of us with weather related pain
than I thought. It's surprising how many people hurt on a chronic basis.

No wonder the chocolate industry is so big and makes so much money. :)
I'm breaking open the 73% pure dark. :9
