Help, I think...

I think I'm experiencing my mid-week crisis, and I don't know why. I have two exams and one quiz tomorrow, which could have something to do with it. But...but, the exams will be exceedingly easy. I have nothing to worry about with them and I am in fact not worried about them. The quiz on the other hand, I am somewhat worried about. Mainly because I haven't studied for it yet. But, I get to take it on my own time, when I want tomorrow, so that will not be a problem. I'm mainly concerned about the five or six hours it's going to take me to study for it - if I follow my normal study routine, and I probably will. And that put me taking the exam at around seven or eight pm, after dark, and I am not very comfortable walking around campus by myself after dark. Call me crazy, but it puts me on edge - like now. And let's see, what else is bothering me? My body! To put it simply, I hurt. My knees are bothering me again - they always do around this time of year - getting all stiff and tender and pained. And then my muscles hurt from the exertions of yesterday. And then my back has been bothering me for the past week. Remind me never to lift any heavy weights ever again. I carried two fifty-pound bags of feed last Wednesday to the shed, and my back hasn't let me forget it since. I think it's getting worse, actually, unfortunately. Damn. Laying on the floor seems to help. I think I freaked Callie out when I did that a minute ago. She was lying on her bed reading a magazine and I just slowly moved my stuff out of the way and laid down in the space between our beds. I was there about a minute before I saw her pop her head over the side of her bed and ask me if I was all right. Yes. No. Maybe. I don't know. Can you repeat the question? And now I'm going to enjoy the simplicity of a peanut butter and banana sandwich. Why? Because it's simple and no matter if I lift something heavy or fail an exam, I know that sandwich is going to be there for me. It's a simple fact of life. I can't even believe you asked that question. Wow. No more koolaid for me tonight. Over and out.
