I Must Say...

I must say, Scooter, I'm rather disappointed in you. There haven't been any new posts since the 2nd, and today is the 9th. That leaves the blog to lay idle for an entire week. It's truly a tragedy.

I'm kidding, of course. Anyway, since you won't post, I believe I shall. Coughing is at a minimum, but when I do cough, I must say it HURTS. Sore throat + hacking cough = unhappy Meg. *sniffle*

*Yawn* I'm getting kind of bored here. Not really much for me to update with. Except this: Race last Sunday - Maren got 1st place for the girl's division in Monterey! Woo! Everyone says the course was really easy and loads of fun. Wish I coulda been there. Don't you?

Nothing else to report. Over and out.

The Reason...

The reason I was mean to you was fairly simple: I was in a really bad mood.

I understand you trying to be nice and, naturally, wanting to know what was wrong. And that didn't really bother me at first. But I didn't want to tell you what was bothering me because, frankly, it's my business and mine alone. I told you that.

However, you kept pressing me and pressing me to tell you what was wrong and it just got annoying. When I am in a bad mood, if talking to me doesn't work, it is best to leave me be and let me cool off. I saw no other way to get you to stop after telling you repeatedly, so I had to find a better way to get my message across to you.

When you kept trying to make me smile, it only made me get into a worse mood. Sometimes, when I'm grouchy, I don't want to smile all the time. I just want to be allowed to sit there and steam for a little bit. Eventually, I cool off and everything is back to normal.

Regardless of how many times I told you that I just wanted to be left alone for the time being, you kept trying. Like I said, I understand you wanting to know what was wrong and attempting to make me feel better. That's just because you're a nice person; it's what you do. But there is a point when it should become clear that I needed to be allowed to just sit there for a bit to fume and then I will be able to calm myself down.

For some reason, even after a pretty good day today, I still find myself rather irritable lately. I apologize for snapping at you for that reason; I'm usually not so cranky and even when I am, your efforts usually bring me into a better mood. Last time, though, it didn't work. When that is the case, leave me be for a little while. Chances are I will start feeling better relatively quickly (a short break from whatever is causing me stress will often allow me to either realize that it isn't that big of a deal or just let myself relax for a bit).

Okay, that's just a really long, drawn out, repetitive way of saying that I'm sorry I snapped at you and, in the future, if you can't bring me into a better mood or get me to tell you what's bugging me, it's best to let me alone and I will start feeling better soon enough.

Wow. That post was longer than I thought it would be.

Co-winky-dink

So Megan like the meanie she is told me I have to blog. Blegh. So first off why were you so mean to me today. I was trying to be nice by making you laugh but noooo you just snap in my face. I was gonna cry...And the worst part was that she didn't tell me why.
Any who now I'm watching Julie and Julia and she writes a blog in it, Coincidence I think NOT. Its O.K. so far but now I'm gonna watch it.
Bye-Bye
