Touchy

I don't know exactly what it is today, but something has put me in a touchy mood. I generally don't let little things get to me but something has been building up. Every minor thing is likely to set me off today. I can see the unreasonableness of this, and how out of character it is for me, and that just makes it all the more frustrating.

I seem to be able to work myself into a frenzy in no time flat right now. One offhand remark by someone can drive me to the edge of reason. The most frustrating thing is that I know none of the things that are driving me mad matter at all. I know this, and yet I can't make myself care that I shouldn't care.

I get this way every once in a while and the only solution seems to be a good nights sleep which of course is hard to get when I am in this condition.

Some days I really wish I had a good punching bag. Beating a heavy bag to drive myself into exhaustion would be an effective means of getting myself out of this emotional rollercoaster.

I come across cynical, but my motto for most of life is "Don't sweat the small stuff" paired with "It's all small stuff". Unfortunately my subconscious and my adrenal system get together every once in a while and conspire against me.

This really only leaves me with one response.

'GAH!'
