Everybody has a “grouchy” day now and then. Today was mine. If I'd met “Little Miss Mary Sunshine,” I'd probably have beaten her to a pulp.
Yes, I know the Queen doesn't normally feel icky, but after a night of tossin' and turnin,' I stumbled to the kitchen only to find that Mr. Coffee had died. I began looking for fresh meat. THE SON hid, and the cat moved out.
Wimps.
Luckily, I remembered what my beloved humorist, Daddy, used to say. “Whining is for sissies, kiddo. You always have two choices. Whine about it, or change it.” Course this is also coming from the man who said (in his Dementia state), “The squeaky wheel gets the worm.”
But his words hit home with me and I decided to change my mood by drowning myself in some good music.
Got the blues? Feeling the weight of the world on your shoulders? The Queen's here to help.
