Sometimes, when the mood threatens to turn me down, I just need a catchy tune to build me up, make my feet itch and my face grin.
Doesn’t need to be overly clever. May change next week again. But - catchy!
Here we go. „Pharaoh‘s in the building!“

It’s a #Fridayfeeling I don’t wanna work, but nor do I want to bang on a drum all day… #mood
I guess next Tuesday will be the start of something new. I was transferred to another team without being asked. I spoke today with my new direct manager and the team's new product manager. They all seem to want to make me feel welcome. That's a good start. I remain optimistic, but vigilant: the devil is in the detail. 1/3 #mood
There is a wonderful view from the top of the mountain. The colors blue and purple relax the soul, you can leave all worries behind and find inner peace.

I think of the great JD Salinger quote from his recurring character Seymour Glass:
“I'm a kind of paranoiac in reverse. I suspect people of plotting to make me happy.”
Whenever I'm actually in a good mood for no apparent reason, wondering if I'm manic or having some other insidious problem rather than just sleeping a full night and not being too sore and doing and enjoying things I like.
Good morning.

Are you ever in a bad mood for now reason at all? I think it happens to all of us. When it happens to me, I usually just get quiet and mope around, but when I'm like that is not a good time to accidently bump into me.
My mother made me a Dammit Doll—a simple creation crafted from a couple of pieces of cloth, stuffed and sewn together, with buttons for eyes, yarn for hair, and a ribbon with a bell attached. A 3x5 card is tied to the ribbon, featuring these words:
"When you feel you want to throw the phone or kick the desk and shout. Here's a little dammit doll you cannot do without. Just grab it by its legs and find a place to slam it. And as you whack the stuffing out. Yell dammit, dammit, dammit."
