    Tomorrow’s race, I’m fearful of the open water swim portion.

    I’m waiting in the car for my daughter. My heart is pounding in my chest. No reason. Earlier today I actually got a phone call from a local number but whoever it was didn’t leave a message so I assume it was a wrong number. Nobody calls me. But I keep thinking about it. And my heart is pounding.

    It’s gonna be okay. Now that you’re done stressing about your classes for this semester, your anxiety is making *kitten* up to compensate. <3

    [eta: not that you don’t have more than enough real stuff to cause stress and anxiety!]

    Telemarketers call from numbers that appear local now. I never answer unless I know the caller and they never leave messages.

    Thinking about trying to locate that post is sending me straight to the medicine chest for the crappy anxiety meds my mean, withholding doctor prescribed. [I WANTED XANAX, YOU DUMB *kitten*!]

    Cheated and lied, broken so bad.
    You made a vow, never get mad.
    You play the game, though it's unfair.
    They're all the same, who can compare?
    First you lose trust, then you get worried.

    I imagine real anxiety would be waiting for the ramp of a Higgins boat to drop into three feet deep water on a Normandy beach. Then running 200 yards thru strewn body parts, with forty pounds of gear on my back, while Nazi machine guns spray the ground in front of me and behind me, often cutting down my friends to my left and to my right.

    Then there are other times I worry that I can't find a good parking spot at Nordstrom's or that my lunchtime pasta dish will be served with the wrong sauce.
