I was mad after that first one, and I just decided to not worry about the form and just throw it.

Worry is the interest paid on a problem before it occurs.

We always play better in the second half, since we're more into the game and warmed up. We did all we could, I just wish the outcome was better.

I think getting up to a big lead in the first quarter is a huge step for us.

I was terrified of death by the time I was three or four, actively if not lucidly. I had frequent nightmares about snakes and scary neighbors. By the age of four or five, I was terrified by my thoughts. By the time I was five, the migraines began. I was so sensitive about myself and the world that I cried or shriveled up at the slightest hurt. People always told me, "You've got to get a thicker skin," like now they might say, jovially, "Let go and let God." Believe me, if I could, I would, and in the meantime I feel like stabbing you in the forehead. Teachers wrote on my report cards that I was too sensitive, excessively worried, as if this were an easily correctable condition, as if I were wearing too much of the violet toilet water little girls wore then.

If I make a wrong decision, I worry what might have been. I stress out over very insignificant things.
