Item number one: Chessypig is a waste of oxygen.
Item number two: Her period is *4 days* late. When it's normally excessively punctual. This makes her just *slightly* irritable, to say the least.
Item number three: The XF Reunion has been cancelled, which means there are some FluffyPeople she won't get to see, and getting to see other NicePeople is going to be a *lot* harder.
Item number four: The two further maths lessons that should have comprised the Chessypig's afternoon were cancelled, so she came home; only to remember that she was meant to be in an Engineering meeting. This helps confirm item number one.
Item number five: Anyone trying the 'God values you' or 'I value you' line of reasoning is likely to get their eyeballs scratched out. Yes, I know people value me. I just can't see that I'm doing anything valu*able*. I generally get over Item number one stages by identifying the cause and not thinking until the cause goes away, but it's not going away...
Item number six: *cries*

"Yes Harry, you do know what that means don't you?"
"Errr ... remind me?"
"That's the one where, before I explain to Michelle that she is valuable, that she's able to make my life much more bearable by her friendship, that she does a *lot* of useful thing s [1] and that she's one of the most gifted young women I know, you throw me some saftey goggles so that when she goes for the eyes I remian unscathed"
"Err ... saftey goggles?"
"Safety goggles Harry, the ones I asked you to get last week."
"Ah ... those safety goggles"
"Why am I starting to suspect you don't have such an item?"
"Err ... err ... yeah."
"Harry, you're useless. Alright, what else have you got that covers the eyes?"
"I have a medival reenactment helmet"
"With visor?"
"Yep"
"Superb, lob it over"

Do you give lessons?
