Stressed? Who? Where? Not in a lifetime!

(Wo)man are you stressed -  how do you know?
Well, you wake up in the morning, and the alarm goes off shaking your head and bed.... BUZZ.... it is forcing you to move your legs (if they still can). It is all too silly, really, as you should be on the move, and don't have time for any ridiculous paraphernalia. You slip into the shower as fast as you can you turn on the toaster or coffee maker. Breakfast w-h-a-r-t a waste of time... gotta towel your body in less than 4 minutes... The boss is yelling at you as you are kinda late! Geeshka!

The gazillion pieces of papers on the desk
Now, you really must get out of that door faster than a spinning zebra - slam-locking it behind you ( else somebody might come in) while heading for the bus, train, tram or car. The mind, is silly and stupid, not quite there yet, as it scans today's morning traffic. It is just another working day, and you are already too busy ahead. Didn't you forget something? What was that? How long will it take to ....remember? What if you do not arrive through the strain? Is work or salary hanging in threads? Your partner might call if you forget that looooong, looping list of shopping. You really need to pay some attention and buy some beers on the way or grab some aspirins for the head, if there is time for that lunch package. How else are you going to make it?

It is just headaches
Well, maybe it is not all that bad...headaches always seem to come and go.... You just need a holiday or place to RELAX, perhaps, but time is not for the taking and it is catching up with the blood that keeps pumping through your heart, spilling over in your head. There you go....if the shoe has not dropped yet. Stressed out yet? To be c-o-n-t-i-n-u-e-d......to death..?
