Subject: [fast5] Re: Irritable or grouchy when fasting?
as an ex waitress i can say that hunger does make you irritable. i can't tell you how many times a person or persons sat at one of my tables and i thought... omg what nasty people. then they eat.. and they couldn't be nicer! total transformation. lol

My friend was talking and having trouble finding the right word, and I found myself thinkging, "get to the point already" - I didn't have my normal patience.
