And there's nothing you can do...

Okay. So why am I *surprised* that I'm in a lousy mood?

It's not that lousy, I'm just a little, uhm, 'highly strung'. Which means I'm rather defensive, annoyed by just about everything, have completely random and often self-destructive impulses, and generally want to tear things into itty bitty pieces. It's not bad enough that I *will*, but it's an annoying undertone. The enforced blankness that's sitting on top of it is getting to me, too.

It might be worth being careful with this. For people like me, conflict-avoidance has a nasty way of turning into passive-agressive behaviour which causes doom and is a nightmare to deal with. However, my experience may not be universal...

Hurting people as in actually physically attacking them. When I'm in one of those moods, hurting people in other ways is pretty much inevitable, really.

Ah. In that case stopping short of actual physical damage is probably a good idea. I'd misread what you'd meant...
