bad mood

Today when I got home from work I was in the worst mood and I still am...
Listed below are the accused culprits:

March snow storm
45 minute commute becomes 1.5 hour commute thanks to storm
my tire has a leak that I repeatedly have to fill with air
I had a test prep class (for a teacher licensure test I am taking on Saturday) from 4:15 PM-8:00 PM after work
I GET to the spend my evening at the class again on Wednesday
husbands leaving clothes in the kitchen
eating a mealy apple
and worst of all no time for the gym

I seriously HATE it when I don't get to go the gym. It ruins my mood for the day. Especially because one way I can guarantee to change my mood and turn that frown upside down is a good long run. I could forget about all the other causes of my bad mood if I could just get to the gym, but once 8:00 PM hits it's just too late.

So what do you do when you are being an ornery donkey and need to change your mood?

I usually...

RUN
eat some double-stuf oreos
take a nap
read quotes about positive thinking

AND that's all I got; so I need some more strategies; especially b/c if the day doesn't include running the day usually won't be including oreos... :(

What do you do?
