Tired

The long traffic jam, coupled with a bad run this noon, and followed by another day at work doing more stuff that seems like a waste of time ruined my mostly neutral mood of this morning. Dana suggested running can, "Take the edge off the sadness." I don't oscillate between happiness and sadness, though. The motion is more like earthquakes, but tripolar, occasionally sliding around between anger, depression, and mania.

What helps is to relax and think about the message of Dawkins's books. Basically you, I, and everything else that could be considered a living thing are disposable wrappers around the longer term content, which is information. If I were limber enough, I'm sure I'd find the "Best if used before: <date>" label.
