Today I broke

[IMADreamer]

It's been building. Lots of things going on, so much stress building up. Lots of tragedy lately. After getting the 12th call in three hours from this crazy old man I told him off. I'll have to apologize later but man it was epic. Like full on Ari Gold rage. He deserved it. Every [expletive] word of it. Still I shouldn't have.

Then I went out to my shop and smashed something with a torque wrench. I've never done that before but there was so much rage. I know it's not healthy, but it was so right.

However for the first time in two days I don't feel like I'm about to have a heart attack. I don't want to smash something. In fact I think I spent about an hour just drooling staring at nothing. I feel. free all the sudden.

I had temper issues when I was younger and I didn't like myself very much. When I was probably around 12, I started saving empty cardboard boxes in my basement and when I was particularly upset I would go downstairs and beat the [expletive] out of some of them with a cork ball bat. It was quite therapeutic. I know how you feel.

I love breaking electronics when I lose it. Smashing keyboards is fantastic, the keys fly everywhere.
It's been years now - perhaps I'm happier now?

I miss college. The university tech surplus sold crappy keyboards for 2 bucks. I went through maybe 20. Yay for computer games.

Just don't use the torque wrench on the old man.

Just don't use the torque wrench on the old man.

Yes, that would be a PC lynching, from what I've recently been told.
