My advice (not that you asked for it!) - always a trip to the beach or any water source. I don't know what it is about the ocean / lake / river - but it always lifts my spirits. Failing that - maybe its beer o'clock and you should have one while watching a silly romantic comedy... Hope your mood improves soon!

(i usually make myself ride up the west hills to the zoo when i'm pissy.) channel all of your grumpiness at the hill, and then ride home to find yourself too tired to remain cranky. maira is the best. she never fails to make me smile.
