Didn't work.
You know that positive-spin, rose-colored glasses post I did about three weeks ago?

Didn't work.

Three weeks later, my business has in no way improved. Nor has my back pain. My weight loss has plateaued, nothing's resolved with my father's legacy, and all I want to do is crawl in a hole and not talk to anyone for a few years, hide from friends and enemies alike.

Amazingly, I haven't had the urge to consume vast quantities of alcohol, the standard response to hopelessness. That's probably because I only drink when I'm in a decent mood to start with.

So, to hell with positivity. I'm going back to being negative. At least that way, I can only be pleasantly surprised.
