Monday, August 17th, 2009 09:43 pmI am back home. At work, after a week off, I had accumulated 231 unread emails. By the end of today, I had it down to about 165 unread. But by the end of the day, I was already feeling frustrated enough again to want to do something violent. I resorted to biting down on one of my stress balls. That made my teeth ache and didn't make me feel any better. I need to find a better way of dealing with stress and frustration than being violent. Otherwise I might really end up hurting myself one of these days.
Feeling down makes me care less about other beings. I care less about whether I kill a mosquito or not.
The 9 hour transatlantic flights were much more endurable this time than on my last such trip a few years ago, due to each seat now having its own little display screen. One could choose to view any of many many movies or TV shows, play various games, or listen to music including many CDs of various music styles.
On the return flight, I watched the movie Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi. I felt it was a very good movie. It even brought tears to my eyes in a couple of places.
I had gotten some noise-cancelling headphones; the noise-cancelling part was good for reducing some of the airplane noise, but they also doubled as very good ear-warmers in the plane.
