anxiety again

ok, a departure from the recent feminist theme.
isn't it strange the things that can cause anxiety?
ive placed mine.  the one that caused that frantic post of last week, and the one that caused the rise in my blood pressure im experiencing now.
it's an individual.  and individual with a frightening amount of power towards my academic future and with whom i have had an unfortunate conflict in past.
the conflict im referring to was probably one of the most intense professional conflicts of my adult life, and frightening in its implications for, as i say, my academic future.
and even though it was more or less resolved, im still anxious.
we just had a perfectly pleasant interaction.
and my heart is in my throat.  
how bizarre is that?
