Minus: Today is a fast day, so not only am I hungry and thirsty, I have a higher potential for crankiness, too.
Plus: Maybe I'll end up an ounce or two lighter?

Minus: I was so tired last night I went to bed before ma'ariv, missing the reading of Eichah (Lamentations) that I find so haunting and moving.
Plus: I got a bit more sleep, when my body wanted it, too.

Minus: Cute Houseguest not only (accidentally) woke me up a couple of times last night, he's also gone through about half the grape juice I have in the house. Grrr.
Plus: Supposedly I will be reimbursed for his staying with me.

Plus: Making major starches plus veggies for dinner last night.
Minus: Not having time to even try one of the flatbreads.
Plus: I got to feed my friends instead.

Plus: The drycleaner finally found the dress I'd left for them over a month ago.

Minus: Something inside, to the right of my spine, is still hurting from the bike ride a couple of days ago. It hurts when I change positions sometimes. This is nothing like any other injury I've managed to give myself... perhaps it's a weird muscle pull?

Minus: Having four sucky rounds of Boggle at lunch(time).
Plus: Having a great last round (the best words I found include: elation, relation, hustler, and lustier).

So that leaves it somewhat plussful. Somehow it still feels a bit in the minuses, unless I distract myself from it...
