Man, I sure have become a craphole of a Christian.

I just hope it's the stress and when all this crud is over, I'll be...better. Or, if nothing else, less craptastic.

Need to figure out some way of calming sudden flares of temper.

By the way, for those who don't know, I will be off IM until after my written prelim.

Is this more than forgetting to go to church because you're studying?

[insert generic comment about moral relativism and differing definitions of "Christian" in this space.] [Which should be discounted given my Catholic/agnostic state anyway, I suppose.]

[r_eventide]

Nah, I haven't been doing that.

This is more along the lines of me trying to not take out stress on everyone else. And not be snappy. Or bite off heads.

Flares of temper are very often due to stress!

(so are forgetfulness, weird dreams, insomnia, stomach ailments, ....)

[r_eventide]

Yeah...but I'm having trouble controlling it. I used to be able to control my emotions very well. :-[

Good luck in studying and your prelims.

I think it's stress, as I went through this kinda crap before my oral defense/final project turn-in/everything else due within a week of each other. My stress relievers: chocolate, good movie, sleep..killing things in a computer game/online.

I hope everything goes well with you.

[r_eventide]

Thanks!

It is stress, yeah. I'm sure I'll get the same thing again just before my own oral defense later in the semester.

I'll have some time to kill things on the computer on Friday. Yay.
