Or: Things you think about while walking the dog, Part 26

I could be angry and annoyed at the dog for waking me up 45 minutes before the alarm was supposed to go off, but would that make any difference? No, not really.

I could be stressed about the paperwork that needs to be done at work and the mad scramble that is sure to come over the next few days, but will that make any difference or get the work done faster? No, not really.

I could worry about commitments to upcoming conventions and all of the work that needs to be done between now and then, but will that make any difference, get the work done faster, or make me feel any better? No, not really.

I could remember these facts and have a happier, less stressful day. That, I can try to do.
