I had to take a trip to the doctor's today.  i've had seriously crippling stomach cramps yesterday and today.  I've been eating charcoal pills, which actually help.  But I thought I'd go to the doctor's to just see what was up.  At first he was baffled, until he asked me if i tend to get anxious.  I don't consider myself a high-anxiety person.  However, I do get excited whenever I walk into a bookstore, or a movie rental place, or if I'm about to buy something online, do the crossword.  I get so excited in these situations that I usually have to go to the bathroom, like clockwork.  I thought everyone was like that.  Until I learned today, that I have an emotional colon, aka an "irritable bowel".
