3 Little Words

How is it that 3 little words can change the outcome of one's day? Yesterday was a horrible day for me. For some reason, I was just not in a good mood. I was frustrated and angry with anyone and everyone. I couldn't control it or figure it out. I snapped at my boyfriend because when he called at lunchtime, he seemed pre-occupied. Now I understand and accept the fact that he has a lot going on right now, so why waste both of our time by calling when you're busy?! It just didn't make any sense to me. Anyway, the rest of the evening I stayed in that horrible, unexplainable mood I was in. My brother and I went to Mom's for dinner (I was still in a bad mood), then he and I went to the gym (still in a bad mood despite trying to burn off some steam). Then it came time for bed and that's when the BF calls again to say good night. As my phone was ringing, I comtemplated answering, but I did because I didn't want to go to bed angry. Then it happens, he tells me he misses me and can't wait to see me and the foul mood disappears. How is it I go through the entire day being pissed off at the world, not knowing why, and all it took was 3 little words, a mere 8 letters to make everything ok again? (we're not at the i love you stage yet) I was talking to a co-worker the other day and we came to the conclusion that life is awkward. This, my friends, is a prime example.
