A lot of reading

 This master's degree is a lot of reading y'all.

Especially problematic as the orientation call people inadvertently lied to me, telling me none of the reading was due on the first day of class. It was. So this last week I've been trying to read through two weeks worth of assignments. Blegh. I will almost certainly not be caught up by classes tomorrow afternoon, but I've been reading my butt off and will at least be close. With my nose to the grindstone I should be caught up by the end of this next week.

Doing that much reading is unpleasant for multiple reasons. One, the brain just gets tired after a certain amount of time. These ain't fluffy fantasy novels. Even if they were, that much reading of them in a row might get to be too much. In addition, I've been spending less time with Suzannah, and helping out less, as I've put all my time into trying to get caught up. So she's not happy either. Rough week, but I sincerely hope it will get better, as I get caught up, more efficient in how I do things, and have a little bit of a life again. That's all I've got time for, gotta get to bed somewhat early so I can do it all again tomorrow.
