Not ever again will I allow myself to fall so far behind in anything I actually have any desire to finish. Holy Christ, did that suck -- crap, my brain feels sore. And I somehow doubt I'm any too logical anymore.

But, I've passed everything and, amazingly enough, even with pretty decent grades, all things considered. Hm. I'm thinking it helps, with instructors, to try and convey this message: I'm not dumb or uninterested in the topic -- I'm just horribly undisciplined.

Somehow, they usually seem okay with that.
