Another 12-hour day.

I woke to test nightmares this morning. My philosophy teacher was asking us questions about the Lord of the Rings, which I knew intimately, but because her questions were so 'creative' I didn't know how to answer and was completely confused. Of course, if I'd studied her take on the LotR I would have gotten it right.

I've been warned, I think.

I'm so busy, I don't have any time to write. I barely have time to do my homework. This morning was humiliating and miserable. I actually turned to the student I was partnering with and said, "Now it's your turn to be tormented."

It's only the third week of classes and I'm barely keeping up. The tutoring is incredibly busy. I was torn like a bone between three students yesterday. Don't get me wrong, I love tutoring. But for some reason the students get attached to me and walk right past other available tutors.*

I've a test tomorrow in Law. I've a test Friday in Japanese. I've a test Monday in Philosophy.

Fuuuuuuuuck. No wonder I'm having test nightmares.

PSA: Any fuckwit who asks me for updates right now, when I desperately want to write and

Can't

(yeah that means you, the person who asked for an update to Reunion), will have their nuts ripped off and redistributed accordingly.

ETA: Normally I love, love, love update requests. They get the blood moving on a story, especially if combined with thoughtful observations about the characters. But right now they're a special kind of torture.

*hugs*

Seeing as I have no nuts attached to my body does that mean...yeah, nevermind. I'd like to keep the girls intact.

Wish I could give you a time turner. There's is a light at the end of the tunnel. And I'm fairly certain it's not the headlight of an oncoming train.

*Stands on tracks*

You sure about that?

*Hears train whistle in the distance. Chugga-chugga-CHUG-ah-chugga...*

*Stares into the light with that surprised deer-in-headlights look.*
