So...I've missed a week of two of my classes. It started the way that it always does, three or so weeks in, I'm tired, I miss something of moderate importance and then I start freaking out. It becomes impossible to rouse myself from sleepy logic, and I start missing more and more and then I have to start dropping classes. I'd like to say that this is due to trying to juggle a 40 hour work week on top of classes, but I know that's not the case. I seem to have lost something since high school/my first few years of college...lost my ability to pull things together and finish strong. I guess I just stopped caring.
However, I'm up on time this morning ready to go with readings done and homework ready to submit. I'd like to say that I've been tested and found worthy, but I'll have to wait until tomorrow when I have tests in the two classes I've been skipping to make that call.

It's amazing how the best-laid plans, even plans involving the Lord's breakfast, can be completely sundered by sleepy logic. Y'know, that special logic of the just-wakened mind that's able to convince you that since you only have fifteen minutes to get ready for work/school, you might as well just go back to sleep. That, even though you've saved doing all of your laundry, homework, shopping, taxidermy (?), etc, for your one day off, it's okay to sleep until 3:00p and accomplish nothing.
Last week I slept through morning classes on Wednesday and Friday. I'm pretty shaken by this, I set a goal not to skip any classes this semester, and I only made it three weeks. So, now that the seal is broken, I guess it's what I do from here that really reveals my character. Or at least that's what a wizened sage should tell me. If this was a video game. Which would be really cool.
