        1. 1A
          He sulked, he brooded, he walked 'round the house with a glum look on his face. / He didn't have a motorized bike and had to miss the race.
        2. 4A
          This capital city southeast of Managua has a namesake city in the western US. / The latter was featured in a song from the 60's. (By a singer who was lacking GPS, I would guess.)
        3. 5A
          This describes your response to a question when you haven't had time to think. / It also describes the rings you've removed, those you've placed beside the sink.
        4. 6A
          I'm particular about the way to divide some random thing in two. / The split -- it must be perfect, not an easy thing to do. / Others don't try to help me; they don't even ask. / They just say this word before "it your way" and leave me to the task.
        Down
        1. 1D
          It's strange, but when your mind is full of thoughts and ideas and cares of the day, / It's hard to be this -- hard to be aware, to live in the moment, as someone might say.
        2. 2D
          This fuel to feed a gas grill? It's stored as liquid, not as a gas! / But does it also describe an advocate of window-fitting glass?
        3. 3D
          It's worry or fear of things to come; it's the enemy of bliss. / If you're a mind-reader, then -- look close! -- you're clearly filled with this.
        4. 4D
          Noah watches as the animal pairs parade onto the ark. / Seeing this plodding mammal now leads him to remark: / "I'm not sure about this guy. Perhaps we shouldn't let him in. / According to what the Good Book says, it would be a sin!"
