Monster alert

Some days I'm too big for my body - I go around acting like I'm ten feet tall, bulletproof, and capable of breathing fire.

This is usually accompanied by an inability to shut the hell up, a certainty that if I think it's funny then everybody will think it's funny, and a tendency to make everything as much bigger than life as I am. On the good side, these are the days when I have really great stupid ideas and the power to enlist allies to carry them out, and I'm generally really productive, creative and useful. On the bad side, these are the days when I carry everything too far, violate boundaries (other people's and my own), and generally make a nuisance of myself.

So yeah. Some days, I'm too big for my body. Today, I'm too big for my cubicle. I'm trying to reel it in and reduce my presence to something that will at least fit in my car, but I'm not sure how well that's going. Anyway, be wary, there's a monster on the loose.

Yeah, I know this is mania, but that's an awfully diagnostic sort of word, and I try to avoid that sort of thing.
