Knots

I had a very easy week at school last week. Probably because I just didn't attend classes on Monday and Tuesday. I was kind of sick, and then my Thursday class was cancelled. So really I only went to school on Wednesday, but now that I think about it, I skipped one of the two Wednesday classes too. Not because I was sick though, because I was unable to leave and miss the rest of a fascinating conversation that was going on in my kitchen.

I suppose that I should have realized that not going to class, and just coasting for one week would come back and bite me the next week. That didn't really sink in until today. I stayed up way too late last night. Let's just say that my alarm to wake me up went off before I actually got into bed. Ridiculous, I know. So no one should be surprised to hear that I barely made it to my 11:15am class. I got there with about 3 seconds to spare, before the Nazi instructor locked the door to keep out tardy students. I was actually very impressed with myself for getting there in time. I'm certain that I looked like a homeless person, but I was there for when she called role, and that's what's important.

After class I came home and told myself that I should take a nap, but just like I told myself the night before that I should be going to bed, it had no effect, and instead I wasted a lot of time doing heaven only knows what. Not eating, and not sleeping. I know that much. At some point it occurred to me that I should be in Santa Ana tutoring, and I had to again go rushing out the door to make it to the appointment 20 minutes late. Fortunately these people didn't seem to be even slightly phased by my tardiness.

I got home and decided to study, since turns out I have two quizzes to take today, due online by midnight. I submitted the last one at 11:59pm. Then finished an assignment that is due tomorrow, and now I'm just sitting here wondering if the knots in my shoulders that are giving me a headache are from my general lack of food intake today, being hunched over my laptop for the last few hours, the awkward position I was in when I fell asleep on my text book a while back, or just the overall sleep deprivation. It's hard to say for sure, but hopefully I can sleep them away.
