Break the Cycle

Trigger/Obstacle: The entire year of 2007 Thus Far

I'll tell you what. 2007 has not been a good year for anger management. I've been dragged through the semester, which has meant a lot of stress. My patience threshold has been in steady decline. Work has been an increasing pain in my ass. The site is driving me to drink (for serious). Now the goddamn media has me eyeing the knife block.

Okay, to be fair, the media is very good at pissing everyone off at one point or another. However, in my opinion, their covergae of the Virginia Tech shooting has gone way too far. When I say it's overkill, I intend for the pun in the malicious tone imaginable. The entire American media system is currently on my shit list, and if I had a gun, let's just say you'd get to watch CNN reporters run for their lives. So in other words, let's all take a moment to be thankful that I do not have a gun of any sort. I will rant more about this subject in my journal as to spare you all.

So, as you can see, my blood pressure should have killed me about now with all this crap on my shoulders a third of the way into the year. Frankly, when it comes to anger management, I did better in 2006. Then again, I had more motivation last year. This year, I have yet to find a reason to get care, let alone get back on track.
