Funny – but ouch!
Even my Klonopin is hyperventilating.
We live in the age of anxiety. At least if you get fired from that job you don’t have, you’ll have time to be anxious about something else.
I’m now competing with friends over who is more anxious. Another good one, Gary!
Have a drink!
Good one Gary
Aw, anxiety be gone! This is perfect, again! Thank you.
Oh no lol!
