Marni, I had to smile a bit reading this - I'm not laughing at you, honest, but it sounds just like something I would do: in an effort to be efficient and on top of things I'd schedule a million things to do all at the same time, then complain afterwards that they were messing up my schedule 
I know just what it's like to have to miss regular exercise, and it sucks. Just upsetting my routine can make me cranky, even if it's to do something nice. Everything gets so stressful when you have to think about what to do all the time, instead of having things run smoothly.
Have the stabs, have the pity party, and come roaring back full of pent-up energy when it's all done!
Winter riding is much less about badassery and much more about bundle-uppery. - malkin
