discombobulation, with a side of TMI

A little sanity goes a long way.

Not to say that my state of mind is / has been stress-free as of late. I still have a GMAT to stress about for the next 9 days. In fact, my body appears to be rebelling against the ebb and flow of recent anxiety levels and has decided to break out with a mild case of hives. At least according to my highly-scientific self-diagnosis. Tomorrow's doctor's appointment may prove otherwise.

Regardless, I feel that I have regained a sense of balance. Just about a month ago I felt out of control, wondering what emotional calamities tomorrow would bring. I was so nervous that I couldn't eat. Today, however, I ate a sesame bagel with whipped cream cheese, a Hershey's dark chocolate nugget with almonds, leftover dijon-herb salmon with rice and green beans, a banana, chocolate cake, a white chocolate cranberry cookie, more salmon (this is what happens when your freezer is full of summer's bounty), broccoli, and milk. And I'm sitting here wondering how to satisfy my sweet tooth.

My reformed eating habits aside, I find the bloggerific quality of my life declining, now that it is decidedly less dramatic. I could tell you about how great/happy/promising/etc. my recently rekindled relationship has been, but a.) I try not to air laundry, dirty or otherwise, in a public forum, and b.) it's just not interesting blog fodder. I could discuss my GMAT woes at length. Or brag about being a newly-certified SCUBA diver. But that would only entertain for so long.

Maybe this "almost normal" thing will rub off and I will learn to release some more of my inner drama queen. Until then, my sincere apologies for boring you all to hell and back.
