I rode my bike downtown today and I saw one of my old high school teachers, so of course my anxiety jumped through the roof (or I suppose the top of my skull). I did want to talk to him though, but since I'm awkward and pathetic I just hung around near him hoping he'd notice me. He never did. Now I feel stupid but the problem is no matter what I did I would've felt stupid. My life would be so much easier without this f**king anxiety

I have a chipmunk chirping at/by my front door, loudly, and I don't have any food for it. I had been buying HUGE bags of sunflower seeds for them for the past five years. The squirrels, and the birds share it as well. Possibly the postman too, if he was REALLY hungry, like this chirping chipmunk is. It is very insistent. I need to change out of my pajamas, go to the store, and buy some sunflower seed for it.
However, I am concerned that when I back out of my garage, I will run over it should it scurries towards the garage. It does that, sometimes. It runs in, freaks out when it sees me, and runs out. It is unlikely to happen again. Except, when one runs over a chipmunk, how does it learn from that experience?
Wait. It's stopped chirping.
Seriously, this is what is on my mind right now, and it has started chirping again.

Is it strange to feel anxious about a certain time on a certain day of the week because you know that is when the a**holes upstairs do their weekly sweep around their apartment? They do it between 5 and 6 on a Sunday evening and so I need to remember to take a nap earlier so that I'm not woken by such horrendous noise.
The landlords keep ignoring my emails. What do I do?
