SO.
Today I went back to school after a week out. A week is like a fucking eternity at my school and I'm super far behind now. I would say that doesn't matter because I'm a senior and all senior classes in my school are pretty much jokes but... I was behind when the school year started because I had unfinished left over credits from last year.
It was exhausting because I'm not 100% not sick yet and I haven't woken up before 10 for a while. My body get's into habits quickly.
I'm also in the play. We are doing a dinner theater this year and there are four short comedy plays that are being shown. I am in one of them and today we had our first rehearsal with all four plays together. So it was long and annoying. It was funny, but still.
1.5 made an awesome beef stew for dinner and I ate so much I swear I was going to explode. Then 1.5 and I sat down at the table and did statistics. Now I am really enjoying this class and for the most part really understand what's happening but in general I am no good with homework. I have dutifully done the last two problem sets and assumed this one would be easy, too.
Let me set the stage.
Problem number one. Parts "a" through "g". Granted "a" through "e" took less than a minute each, but still. We got to a point in problem one where the method/formula was in dispute between 1.5 and myself. Time was spent while she tried to figure out what it was and I sat on the floor whining about how I didn't want to do it anymore... and something about how my legs were going to explode. She did some calculations, then a few minutes later we deciphered my notes and did the problem two different ways, getting two answers that were not the same. At which point I just wrote an answer down and whined that we should move on. Question two. Like a bajillion numbers and they were big numbers and I had to put them in order. That took a full 3 minutes or maybe 5 and at that point my brain was fried. There are just some times when you can't focus anymore. It was the combination of the whole say and I just couldn't do anymore. Really. I don't want to fail this class and I don't think I will.
It's just tonight. I was done. It was only 10:15 but I was exhausted and yes, I know I'm not going to bed but I'm also not doing homework. This takes no effort. I will get my homework done tomorrow in between school and play practice. I'm sorry for causing you whatever I caused you 1.5 but... There are just times when you can't focus anymore.
