My sister works retail, and has noticed a sharp uptick in cranky customers. Some of that may be the season (why does Christmas bring out the worst in so many?), but I've noticed an overall decline in the moods of friends and family. Heck, come to that, I'm much grumpier than usual.
Have y'all noticed a difference in your mood or that of those around you? Do you think it's the economy? It's tough to be upbeat when you are worried about your mortgage, or your job . . . what do you think?

It could also be Seasonal Affective Disorder for those who live in the Northern Hemisphere... IDK?
There is also an uptick in violent criminal activities perpetrated by first-time offenders...
Haven't noted too much drug abuse, yet. But I suspect that will occur, too. Don't know what the drug of choice will be because most top ones folks are too afraid of getting busted--i.e. crack, crank, smack and meth or glass...
I have seen plenty of crankiness going around... Somedays I deal with it, other days, I don't even deal with it.
