Ugh...

I made a mistake at work - on a room cancellation - and it is irking me now. Everyone makes mistakes but I guess it is bothering me now. I will try and work it out but my supervisor is disappointed and I really hate that. Just expressing and I don't want to go into details about it. Uggles. Also - people at work are driving me crazy. My co-worker is injured and I could use a day off to de-stress but that is not going to happen. Letting off steam here.

So last night I read a really good essay on guns, gun violence and gun control in the US by Stephen King called "Guns". It is a short work on the kindle. He really lays it out there quite clearly and passionately. This kept me up pretty late finishing it in one sitting and I highly recommend it if you care at all about gun control and this issue. He is a good writer and really punches it.

Hope you all are having a good week. Cheers.

I'm sorry about the Uggles. :/ You will get it straight. *nods*

Hope you are feeling better, hon! ♥

All worked out today. Yays!

Don't go on kicking yourself, Jane. We all do it. Especially when we're stressed anyway. Give yourself a big hug and then another from me.

Not an easy read after a tiring day, that.

I'm totally pro gun control. Not that I'm in the states. But from here, it seems if there's a gun to hand when people are in a bad moment, anything can happen.

Anyway. Have you something happy to read tonight?

I do kick myself. I am pretty hard on myself. Ugh. It all righted itself today tho so that is good. Or I worked to get it right, more like.

I am still reading this weird scientology stuff. Not sure why I am so into this but it is fascinating.

So glad it was better today.

Yep - it is fascinating. I watched a BBC documentary on it a while back. I'm surrounded by scientists and mathmaticians in my immediate family. But there are some weird religious ideas in uncles and aunts.

How are you feeling healthwise now? Any better than you were? Did you get new medication? That reminds me - I must order a repeat prescription on-line for my Mum. See you soon. Hugs xxx

I am doing fine now. Cannot remember what was going on there and I am too lazy to look back. Thanks for asking.

*Snuggles* I hate that feeling. It will pass. We are all human and goof once in a while.

I'm for gun control, as you know. It's an odd American phenomenon this 'I HAVE THE RIGHT TO HAVE GUNS' thing. Ugh.

I knows. It feels bad. It all worked out today or I worked it so it worked out. :P

This essay was really good and Stephen King is all for gun control too and he owns guns himself. Funny that.

I'm sorry, sweetie.
