the stress poll

Brought to you by my doctor's appointment yesterday, which I am still not over. (And not only because of the sore arm and tiredness from the pneumonia vaccine I got, or the two medical screenings for Hideous Old People Diseases that I will soon have to undergo.)

You've been dreading something (a task, an event), or at least been stressed out about it. But it's over now! It went okay; nothing horrible or unusually stressful happened. How do you feel?
