Translation Notes:
* I think itsu ni naru means "at any moment"; gutsugutsu
means "to boil gently; simmer"; sowasowa means "to be [grow] restless;
fidget".
** I hope I didn't confuse the subject here. I think she's tired of hearing
him whine even though she knows it's tough at work. But it could also mean
she knows it's trying for him to listen to her whine, but stop acting annoyed.
But I think it makes more sense if he's being the wimp here.
*** kowamote means "be made much of [treated with deference] because
people are frightened of one; achieve an apparent popularity through fear".
