How the #$% is me mellowing out a bad thing?

[propita]

Exhaustion, I know thats one thing. I'm a lot more tired than when I was going constantly. All so a bit more fidgety, like I don't know what to do with myself now that I've got more free time in a day. I have to keep telling myself "not my problem, let 'em work it out on their own" whenever I get the urge to jump in.

I'll bet the fatigue is from your changing attitude. I just read that people who grind their teeth at night are constantly pumping out cortisol, and so have a constant fight-or-flight thing going on. (That's me) So relaxing, or trying to, really puts one over on your body chemistry.

I studied my ass off for the Bar. Took the Bar. And now I'm sleeping a lot. A whole lot. Hubby said it's the let down from the constant adrenalin (layman's version). It happened last year when I took the Bar, so I don't doubt it.

You think this is you, too?

Could be. Insomnia's back, I feel like have to be doing something...anything...just give me something to do.

I think the wife's taking bets on how long it'll before I snap.

^Careful, retooling a show with a new cast tends to lead to cancellation.

Could go either way. As long as he doesn't use Ted McGinley he could be okay.

It is like a stupid sitcom sometimes. I'm just waiting for the laugh track "You want me to bail out the cousin that tried to set my wife up for theft...and take him in? Sure, what could go wrong" (cue the laughter)

Enough with the users and takers. You don't need them to control your life.

Relationships are like a joint account--you're not supposed to making all the deposits while the other person(s) make all the withdrawals. And then blame you for not depositing more for them to take. God, I hate such losers that take and take and take.

Any chance you can hang with people who give a bit to you?
