An Apology To My Parents

I've returned to college life. That Psalm 102 assignment is due today (Tuesday) at 8:00 in the morning. I did research for it during the day, then spent time not doing homework as Jenny got home from work. When she went to bed at 11:00 I resumed my homework. It is now 3:00 in the morning and that project is finished.

Unfortunately, I also have a test in that class tomorrow which means now I get to read 4 chapters worth of textbook material (the professor authored this textbook and the tests are pretty specific). My sleep for the night will be slim to none. Then I'll go to class. After class, I will sleep. Likely the whole afternoon until Jenny again returns home. We'll eat dinner, and go to our small group. When I get back from that (usually around 10:00) I'll need to begin my Hebrew homework. I have a test in that class on Wednesday, and haven't looked at it since class 2 and a half weeks ago. It'll take me a while to memorize all that I need to, so my sleep will look odd again before that class, with a long nap likely on Wednesday afternoon. Wednesday night I get to read an entire book and write an 8 page paper on it for my Thursday class. Fortunately, after class on Thursday, things are pretty calm as I'll be caught back up on the homework I was supposed to have done over the last two weeks.

I've got quite a bit of experience working my mind and body under these conditions, and fortunately, I usually come out with grades that make my more diligent piers upset.

Sorry Mom and Dad, I did it again.
