Is anyone else waiting for the other shoe to drop? [View all]

Terrible feeling of foreboding, like any minute now I'm going to turn on the TV or the computer and something terrible is going to be happening. Is it because of the election? Plus, my usual vivid and interesting dreams are becoming horrible nightmares, at least the ones I remember.
