My day isn't as stressful as some.

Stock brokers on wallstreet. Yeah. They have a it rough. I'm sure pumping the cigarettes and coffee help them cope.

7th grade teachers. Boys hitting puberty - enough said. Maybe pounding erasers reduces stress? Just kidding.

Soldiers. Being away from home. Constant fear, you name it. I can't imagine dealing with that.

Like I said, I could have it much worse. Constantly complaining, I quickily learned, did nothing for any stressful job situation I might encounter in Arkasnas or anywhere else. Bosses are a rare breed of people - some are more insane than others but they share many qualities that are unescapable in any job that you get.

I've learned to accept all of that - because of one key thing. I have finally (after 24 years) learned how to relax.

I remember in 7th grade science, I would work and work and work to get extra credit. I would end up with 180 % at the end of the year. That was all fun and good (great projects that I got to do with my dad!) but one of the reasons that I did all of that extra credit, was that I didn't think I could rest.. Once I got done with my regular homework - I had to do more!

Well I am done with school - in the work world. The same stresses and trials. But I have learned to laugh them off and take breaks when I need one.

I am only human.

and I have reasoned that all of the experiences I have had (good, bad, funny, insane) will some day make an exciting auto biography.
