Ah, the problem with having a brilliant child who is ahead of the game is that she is also very head strong, and know what she wants. She has now perfected throwing a fit.. she hangs her head back and wails... I should get it on tape. So I've started this thing where I mock her (hang my head back and say "waahhh".. she finds it hilarious, and sometimes it will get her out of her funk.. but about half the time she just goes back to where she was, typically trying to get the thing (pen, paper, etc.) I took from her.
The other thing she has started doing, is that when her dad leaves and shuts a door, she bawls, throwing her head back, like someone pinched her hard or stollen something of hers. She has now done this at home (this morning) and in my office (twice just today). She also did it once this morning when the door between the bedrooms and kitchen/frontroom/diningroom was shut.. she cried as though I had locked her in .. I couldn't tell whether she though I was on the other side or not.. she was quite overwhelmed and hard to console.
