anxiety, maybe.

I'm nervous. My stomach is queasy with excitement and jitters. I really need to calm down or I won't be able to finish my chicken nugget TV dinner complete with french fries in the shape of smiley faces. And that would be a shame. So many things send me into this weird, frenzied state as of late. Today, it's because I'm starting a new job. A first job, in fact. I have to be there in forty minutes. Thus, panic mode. I really need to eat these nuggets...and get off of the computer. I think I'll do that now.

This is my first blog post. Ever. I'm a novice in the blogging world. Hurray! I'm also supposed to be writing a couple papers at the moment, but I'd rather be writing to strangers in cyberspace. I've been thinking about how good it feels to just breathe. In, out. Focusing on the steady rhythm of my beating heart as my lungs draw air into my body is comforting. Reassuring, even. When I know I'm breathing, I'm much more wont to keep it up.
