What Me Worry?
From Websters:
Worry: mental distress or agitation resulting from concern usually for something impending or anticipated
Worrying runs in my family. It's in my genes. I get it from my mom who got it from her mom and so on. It may be my one and only flaw. Yes it's true, I'm not perfect. I hope this admission doesn't shatter any notions anyone has of my greatness. But I admit, I am a worrywart. I am the mayor of Worry Wart Village. There is a statue of me in the aniexty hall of fame. Don't worry, it's not a nude.
I mean I worry about things that haven't happened yet and maybe won't. Do I Have powers to see into the future? NO. So WTF? I worry about people in my life like a mother hen, grown adults who don't always need a circling buzzard-like yet handsome person hovering with a metaphorical safety net. Relationships, bills, life, you name it and my undies are in a bunch about it, ther's a bee in my bonnet about it, and my feathers are ruffled about it.
Oh and don't get me started on going to bed. I am the king of letting my mind race as soon as my head hits the pillow. What is it about darkness and being horizontal that lets ones mind wander into an abyss of "what if's" or "crap that bill is due?"
I need to relax, chill, chillax even. I can't control everything, I know this. And as much as I would like it, the whole world does not listen to me so I cannot control everything. I should just wait for life to happen and deal rather than stressing. At least I'm self aware. Now where's my Tylenol PM so I can get to sleep?

Chill Brent!
Or maybe a chill pill?
Really, Craig had an obsessive worry issue. He'd check the door locks half a dozen times before going to bed. And other thing too. Got him on some pills, he's sooooo much better.
Some thing to think about.
