Today's been... one of those days our mothers warned us about. I had the emotional high of being the delighted recipient of spousal love and creativity, then I went to class and... I'm not really quite sure what happened.
I've been... sensitive? I guess is the best way to put it, over the last few weeks. I horrified myself by crying in my VB Programming class last night (although I do assert that Visual Basic 6 would make anyone cry), and I came uncomfortably close to tears again today in my Bio Lab. (Worst. Labpartner. Ever.) I'm a bit concerned about all the boo-hooing and associated feelings of exhaustion and fragility that accompanies it.
Is this just... overload from my heavy class load this semester, or something more annoying and difficult to diagnose and/or deal with? I don't know. I also don't really know my purpose in posting this, unless it's solely to organize my thoughts and to give a generalized, "Hey, not feeling myself, if I burst out crying at you... it's nothing you said, really." heads up to my friends and family.
I decided I wanted to give up smoking for a few months. Please... don't harangue me about how it's a damaging and awful habit. I know, I'm aware. My allergies are getting bad again, and I've had a few asthma attacks this year already and I figured I'd give my lungs a hand for a change.
I didn't intend to sit down and write a depressing entry, sorry folks. I'll be my usual chirpy self again soon. I just have two more days of school to get through for the week.

So it could be. If it's related, I'd say it's more emotional than physical; since I often go a week without one with no problem. Of course, deciding I'm 'Giving Something Up' might very well have made my annoying little lizard hindbrain throw a temper tantrum. ;)
The smoking thing is rough too... I gave it up about four years ago now and it was pretty much the hardest thing I've ever done. Sometimes you just feel like they're you're only buddy. Like the poster above me said, don't be surprised if that leads to even more sudden sad attacks.
Most importantly- don't judge yourself for having sad attacks! I used to freak out a lot about random crying because it increased when I went back to school and my stress levels rose. Now I just kid of regard it as the ebb and flow of life.
Soo... there's a lot of 'normal' things it could be. A lot of medical things it could be. I'm trying not to stress out about it too much and just let it pass. Easier said than done. :)
Very annoying.
oopsie. :)
And I think everyone is tuned into a monthly cycle whether they're aware of it or no- but I'll save that for when I can type on a real keyboard (although the iPhone keyboard is much nicer than I thought it would be :) )
