mood is a mood-tracker. Whenever you log an entry, you'll be asked how you're feeling and what you're up to, and be given a space to input notes.
The entries are stored as text files in ~/.config/mood, or whatever the env var $MOOD_DIR is set to.
Copy mood to ~/bin/ or anywhere else in your $PATH.
As with most Unix-esque programs, -h and -v print help and version, respectively.
Run mood with 0–1 arguments to log an entry:
$ mood 'pretty good, actually'

Notes (Enter and ^D to finish):
Added a README to `mood` today. It is really freaking hot in San Francisco.
Made sure I was getting my two liters today.

To log your entry elsewhere (which I do while developing), set MOOD_DIR in the environment:
$ MOOD_DIR=/tmp/mood_devel mood
I take patches with utmost gratitude, but I also request that they be put through shellcheck first.
