The Complete Idiot's Guide to the Way I Feel

Unstable: It melts and then it freezes. I nearly slipped and fell three times on my way to the train station this morning. One of those glissades was almost into a moving car. Should have worn skates.

Sympathetic: with Lionel Logue (The King's Speech), a "nobody" autodidact who had "no letters after [his] name" but the kind of experience that made the difference. I have a couple of letters after my name, but not the ones people bother to put on their business cards. Experience is my only currency.

Curious: Why does the Chevy Volt, an electric car, have a silvery fake grill on the front?

Amused: By all the yelling and expletives streaming from one of the soundproof (?) studios at work. Joey [trousers] is in there, creating content.

Wondering: How King Tut and Cleopatra would opine about the demonstrations in Egypt. They weren't exactly democrats (that would have been ahistorical), but Cleo at least was concerned about providing for her subjects.

Excited: About the deleted scenes from Blue Velvet, long thought lost, that have recently been unearthed, just in time for the Blu-ray re-re-re-release (suspiciously perhaps). Now if that French distribution company would just let DL have those FWWM outtakes -- the holy grail of Lynchiana.
