Are all writers cranky, horrible, disagreeable people deep down and sometimes on the surface, too? Or is it just me?

Seriously, I'm just feeling like disagreeing with everything in the last few days. I disapproved of the population of St. Louis Park today. 44K seemed extravagant for them. They could have done as much with 30K, I thought. That is the level of disagreeable I am.

And then I get two people who loff me well expressing excitement about their impending firstreader status, and what do I say to them? I say, "You'll be sorrrrrry!"

So I ask again: all writers? Or just me?

Ah, but do you find yourself agreeable?

Aha, the crux of the issue! Hm. Y'know, I feel pretty disagreeable quite a lot of the time: Bush, the Mideast, plagiarizing students, when do I get some time to catch up with things, why the hell don't we have real alternative power, why the hell don't we have a real space program, like that.

So maybe. Hm.
