I'm stressed again. Really stressed. It's okay, though. I can handle it. And I hide it pretty well, too. I can handle mental and physical pressure and stress, but when you add emotional stress I start going downhill a little. And when I get stressed, I get cranky. And when I get cranky, people get pissed at me. And when people get pissed at me, that isn't good. And then I feel like shit, because I'm shitty.
