    OMG! lol, Look I’m going to tell you how was that I got to your blog… I work with kids and sometimes they can drive you ABSOLUTELY CRAZY!!!, so today was one of those days and I just felt so frustrated and angry that I needed to scream it to the world in every way I could. I usually use msn messenger and I constantly change my nick and my display picture according to my mood… right now my nick is: Aggrrrrr!!! and your picture of anger is my display picture… Why? because that picture was the only one out of the whole bunch of pictures I looked at in google that represents everything that I feel right now. I loooved this specific post… you definitely brought out each feeling with the right expression. So that’s what I wanted to let you know.
    Thank You So much.

    Rob, I was just organizing my 219486302576056187465003865… pictures cuz’ they are all over the place in different carpets with EPSN### names lol! so I found your picture and I thought… “hey maybe he replied” and you did! Thanks.

    LOL! It’s good to know thanks :) I was having a boring and lonely night listening to this song I love “Feeling good” (PCD version)- feeling tired, bored and lonesome but “I’m feeling goooood… birds flying high” … LOL – but now you made my night (in the nice way) hehe =p !

    BTW I saw the picture and that’s why I’m still smiling! and to be honest I laughed a little bit… u.u … Kids are GRRREAT but they can drive u nuts, can’t they?

    I still use ur pic in my display once in a while… he he, hope u don’t mind :D

    I’ll take a look around now.

    Thank you!

    Hey,
    I am doing a computer tutorial for one of my psychology classes at Shippensburg University, and I was wondering if I could use the “anger” picture? thanks!
