Weblog entries posted on this day.
I don't remember exactly how I got there, but I found myself reading Stress & Your Health: The Physical Warning Signs three days ago. Here's a caption from the site:
Chronic stress can wear down the body's natural defenses, leading to a variety of physical symptoms, including the following:
- Dizziness or a general feeling of "being out of it"
- General aches and pains
- Grinding teeth, clenched jaw
- Headaches
- Indigestion
- Increase in or loss of appetite
- Muscle tension in neck, face or shoulders
- Problems sleeping
- Racing heart
- Cold and sweaty palms
- Tiredness, exhaustion
- Trembling/shaking
- Weight gain or loss
- Upset stomach
- Sexual difficulties
Well, guess what? I've got all of those — save the last one (unless by Sexual difficulties
they mean trouble finding a new girlfriend
, because then yes, I've got that too — not that I've been doing things that would bring such opportunity lately).
Bah. It didn't surprise me one bit — I guess good ol' serotonin is to blame. I hope the psychiatrist I have an appointment with tomorrow can tell me more about that (and perhaps fix it?). Note to self: do not forget appointment with Dr. S. Sibie on March 23 at 13:30.
On a brighter note: I just installed Mozilla 1.7 Beta, which has been released four days ago (I'm being slow). As I read the release notes, I was very pleased to read it has support for the CSS3 opacity property
. Maybe I'll play around with this feature in the new css Zen Garden designs I've been working on the past few days (which are all highly experimental and boundary-pushing).
Here are some more bright notes from as of late:
nothing. (not really valuable information, but I thought it was pretty witty)
More on my mental state, css design, and bright notes, soon.
This day, elsewhere.
