Let it Go

"I envy people who can just get mad and then get over it," I say to my cubicle mate. "Like you: you get mad, you get 'salty,'" using her favorite word for when she let's somebody have it who really has it coming, "and then you're done."

"But sometimes, I don't even know I'm mad for, like, twenty minutes. And then it takes me the rest of the day to get over it."
