Unwinding

I can't seem to unwind. I had one of the busiest days at work ever, and thus didn't get to do much work on my novel - I'm at 11,086 at last count. I want to (I mean, I WILL) reach 15000 tonight before going to sleep, so I've got some work ahead of me, but I'm all tense right now, and I don't know
a) why

and

b) what to do about it.

I hate when I get this way. Every little thing irritates me, and I have this anxious feeling that I need to be doing something, even though I don't want to DO anything. I really, really hate this feeling.

Additionally, my jaw left hurting. Or, put another, Non-Pearl Jam way, my jaw is currently aching from being tensed. Obviously this is due to stress, and I should relax, but again - I don't know how. Irk. Some.

Deep breath.

I was going to post a list of all the Dean Koontz novels he's ever written, along with my coments on them (go word count and all) because the Steph went and picked up another book of his (remember how I said I was going to read all of his novels? I'm still doing that.) but that doesn't really mesh with the semi-rant above, so I think I'll save it for another time.

In the meantime, I guess I'll sign off the computer ...no, I'll sign offline, and stay on the computer to work on my novel. At least until Lost comes on.

In conclusion, welcome to the new kind of tension.
