catharsis

If you're one of the two people who reads "The Diva Diaries", you've probably noticed I enjoy venting. I don't believe in repression (except for psychopaths, who should definitely try to repress their sick urges) and prefer to get things out in the open. Keeping it to yourself is just a fast track to ulcers and heart attacks! It is much better to share!

I don't even consider myself an angry person, I just think the world would be greatly improved if everyone did the RIGHT thing (rather than the cool thing, easy thing, wrong thing, etc.) I mean, is it really that difficult to have manners and be considerate of others? Apparently for many, it is...

Sometimes when I am especially frustrated, I turn to my little friend Planet Feedback (http://www.planetfeedback.com). Not only to I get to unload my complaint du jour, but I also get to see I am not alone. Oh no, there are many in the same boat, all expecting businesses to appropriately serve us customers. Also, some people write letters that demonstrate their tenuous grip on reality, and I like to laugh at these attitudes of entitlement and misperceptions.
