i break things when i'm mad

i've woken up on the wrong side of the bed these past two days. i'm not really irascible or anything, just a bit cranky and dazed--like i need a cup of tea, even though i've already consumed like two POTS of tea.

but somehow things around me keep breaking. for example: this morning while brushing our teeth, my husband slipped an "eggy whiffo", so i grabbed the air freshener container and swung it around the room. then it slipped out of my hand, crashed into the bathroom mirror, knocked an antique cream pitcher into the sink, breaking off the handle. oops.

then this afternoon, after losing a scrabble game to my husband, i gave him a shove and the leg snapped off his chair (also an antique). not good.

i need another cup of tea.
