So, shit happened and it wasn’t awful and it wasn’t unexpected but it’s still shit and I need to just deal with it but before I deal with it I need to breathe and say Yep, shit happened and it wasn’t awful and it wasn’t unexpected and it can in fact be dealt with and I will in fact deal with it but first I need to breathe.
Oh, and when NPR tells you that the story about rhinoceros horn smuggling includes audio that might upset some listeners TURN THAT SHIT OFF or you will end up listening to a rhino crying as it tries to escape poachers and goddammit a crying rhino will ruin your whole damned evening and make your anti-capital-punishment self want to kill every last poacher if that’s what needs to be done to save the rhinos and elephants and lions and tigers and bears.
Oh my.

This is somewhere between a joke and not-a-joke but… have you considered a nice glass of wine for this evening?
Deep breaths, my friend…

@gh: Sometimes wine helps. It would not have, this time. Whisky, on the other hand. . . .
@dmf: Perhaps I should put together a songlist about breathing.
