I feel a bit ridiculous being so anxious. One LOR was from a professor who straight up said it was an honor to write me one. The other professor I wasn't as close with, but I took a few small seminar classes with him and he's an insanely nice guy. For some reason, my brain keeps telling me he wrote a bad lor, even though the guy is super nice.
I keep replaying really minor details in my head. Like, I thanked him multiple times for writing the letter, but I didn't respond to his last email, which was really just 'okay, I'll have it in by that date, and I'll message you when I send it in.' I keep thinking he must have thought I was rude. He sent the letter in like a month later, early in the morning, and didn't message me. I wonder if that's a bad sign, but also, the dude is a long time professor who probably gets up early to do work anyway, and he probably just forgot to message me.
Logically, I think I'm taking a bunch of tiny things that really don't matter and getting stressed over them....

I don't think it's a bad sign! If you feel inclined, you can always email him saying you received confirmation of the letter submission and that you are again grateful for the time he spent writing it.
I suspect he's very busy and it slipped his mind to message you after submission. Wishing you luck!
