I'm stressed out.
Jul. 3rd, 2002 09:59 amYou know how I can tell I'm stressed out? It's not 'cause I actually *feel* stressed out. Nope. That would be waaaaaaayy too easy. Then at least I'd know to lay flat on the floor and not get near *anything* until I feel better.
I can tell because I'm breaking things.
See, when I get really stressed, I break electronics. It's part of the reason why I can't wear a watch for more than a month or so at a time.. I get wigged, and kaplooey. My record for breakage, in one morning, is: two computers, a printer, a vcr, a cordless phone, and a 'fridge. It was a particularly bad day.
Sunday I managed to wipe out two modems and my cell phone, which means I was incommunicado until this morning. The cell phone was *extremely* frustrating, because when I went to get it exchanged I found out they don't make that phone anymore. ::grumble:: So now I'm stuck with an ugly-ass phone 'cause I had limited choices as to what I could get in exchange. And Mr. Kitty was less than pleased that I blew up his modem... I maintain he's lucky I didn't wipe out the whole computer.
Ack.
( So who wants to know why I'm stressed? )
