I've been tweaky all damn day. I started out stressed enough to hell that I called in to work today, and it's been getting progressively worse since. Not getting work done, though I'd like to be. I was trying to describe to C earlier what this felt like, and the best way I could come up with is this.
There is always a lot of background noise in my head. Usually it's at a dull roar or a simmer, and I can usually isolate bits of the noise, deal with it, and then put it down, and then go on to the next thing. But when I get like this it's like someone's added a TV cranked to 30 blaring a news channel in a foreign language that I only sort of know (lets say Russian, as right now my fluency is just about nonexistant there) and the coverage is all bloody war battles and bombings and devastation all the time, but all the images are of places I know rather than being somewhere comfortably across an ocean or so. Yeah... gets kinda hard to think straight or uncoil from being wound up tight when that's happening.
So yeah. Not having a good day. And I have a headache to boot. I might take a nap in a bit, hopefully that will reset my head enough to function again.
