In addition to Tenacious D, I have found another soothing balm for my anger at the world. Two of my married students just got a new puppy, and they sent me a photo of him. I opened it this morning, and then left the window open -- that way I can read stuff like this, and when steam starts to come out of my ears, I quickly switch over to the puppy window and look at this little piece of heaven.
He works wonders for bringing my rage to a manageable level.

I shouldn't have felt down, but I did. Note the past tense. A few thousand pixels above worked their magic on me. But don't worry, my laser beam's still on.
I wonder if the puppy acts as cute as it looks.
