Irritable.
Aug. 31st, 2006 05:26 pmI am a round mound of bad temper today. ( Moaning about body irritation. )
Blah. And if all that wasn't enough, I've come home to find the whole house reeking of hydrocarbon combustion, with a burnt, sooty smell and acrid fumes in the air. I suspect our neighbours have been having another of their barbecues fueled by kerosene [1] again.
Hugs welcomed but I think you'll have to limit yourself to *hugs* - I'm so itchy & bad-tempered that I'm likely to bite someone's head off by accident.
[1] OK, kerosene is the fuel of jet engines. It's unlikely that's what they used. But if you've ever stood in Heathrow Central Bus Station and smelt that horrible, acidic mixture of bus & aircraft exhausts - diesel soot, sulphur dioxide, unburnt hydrocarbons, NOx & ozone - which makes your entire respiratory tract itch and swell up, that's what all the back rooms of our house smell like. I've now shut the windows and it's starting to clear. But ugh.
