I woke up super cranky today, it was one of those familial domino affects- one person wakes up cranky and they wake up another person ,making them cranky and so on. But I'm trying to cheer myself up by looking at LOL cats and watching clips of Portlandia. There is too much to do today to be cranky and i am so very excited about it all.
