Isn't everything the worst?

I'm a negative person. It's really not cool. I don't know if I've always been like this, or at least, have always had the possibility of it. There was a period in high school when people said I was a Pollyanna; annoyingly positive about everything. Maybe I just have to be an extremist.

In any case it's something I'd like to work on but I don't know how. Little problems make me very angry. There seems to be no solution to the little sucky things in life that don't involve more suckiness. If I can't find something in a messy drawer I'm angry that it's not organized, but if I actually got the whole house in order and maintained it on a daily basis (which is what it would take to keep my drawer organized) then I wouldn't have time to relax at all. Hence, every little setback is a reminder of my limitations and puts me on full anger mode in an instant.

How do I accept that everything sucks without being angry about it? Without being stoned, that is.
