Let me out.

I should be asleep.  Truthfully, I should've been asleep a good four hours ago, at least.  But I'm just restless, again.  I'm anxious.

Tomorrow I'll be seeing a couple of former friends for what I think will be the very last time.  Still recovering from the course that everything took, I should be relieved--and I think at some point in the day, I will feel that way--but right now, I'm noticeably on edge.  It's not that I think something terrible will happen, or that I fear the awkward tension might be unbearable; rather, I think it's just how I always feel in situations such as this...

No matter what the occasion, if I've been unable to rectify a problem, I take it personally.  I get ill, my stomach turns, my mind races and tries to come up with witty responses in case a confrontation does indeed, occur--and I don't know why.  I shouldn't be upset about this.  I shouldn't be as torn up as I am.  I shouldn't care one bit.  But that's my problem: I always care, even when it seems I don't or probably shouldn't.

It never fails.
