Ah yes, and when someone asks to do something later for them... There goes the relaxation. Time to only think of thst small thing to do later until it's done. Sigh.

Well, that's just normal right? I mean, how are you supposed to relax when there is a fricking Sword of Damocles hanging over your head!? That's not abnormal behaviour, right guys? Everyone is like that, right? No? They just don't think about it and do the thing when the time comes? Man it must be nice...
