it's actually almost quiet. -i'm- the one freaking out. it's a pattern.
i'm on a deadline, and stressing, and every little thing bothers me. the insects. the roommate's friend who won't leave. the dogs.
generally, the vermin.
it's an 11th hour last ditch motion in a case i've already lost.
so what did i do all day, aside from the birthday party next door?
myspace mostly. and webcomics. and solitaire.
this used to happen every semester, and is why it took me 12 years to graduate.
stress avoidance, and last minute creative brilliance. it's when i do my best work, or crack up.
cracking up seeems more likely this round.
