These are those quirky little knee-jerk, physical responses that occur whether the mind wants them to or not. Most times, these reactions follow a small action (or non-action) and can be categorized as irrational in the beginning.
No messages.
No voice mail.
No...communication...whatsoever...for...some...time...
The stomach flips over, turns in upon itself, wiggling in its own juices. Its appetite suppresses leaving it on near-full for hours at a time. While this happens, the cool tinglies dance about the surface of the arms and neck causing subtle shudders only the body can feel, not anything visible to the public. This is not necessarily an unpleasant feeling, but rather an awakening to the senses alerting the mind to be placed on its initial advisory setting.
Meanwhile, the ears tune in and the eyes focus, narrowing sharply, waiting for any pulse that would signal a communication from the outside, a blinking - on the ready - on the mark - waiting only for the "go" light.
Body movements seem exaggerated during this time and speech patterns alter causing shifty language and blubbery pauses where the articulate flow used to exist. Everything and everyone in the body's general vicinity seems pointed, more connected, and ultimately on fire.
This lasts only a short period before the mind receives the appropriate signal from the gut saying, "Girl, it's go time. Start your engine..."
