I'm hopeful the exhaustion I'm feeling for the second day in a row relates to this being my second first day back (meaning first day of class for some classes) and not that I've reached my maximum capacity and I need a more sufficient break than one weekend. Last night I called a quits around 8:30. I'd been reading for hours and found myself falling asleep on the sofa, book in hand. Tonight it's nearly 9:30 and I'm just as tired. I don't know if it's because I'm just adjusting and by Thursday or so I'll be back to normal, or if I'm hitting that wall where I need a break from this learning stuff. I know that break is coming. I see Spring Break hiding just around the corner, and yet mentally I'm exhausted all the same.
I find myself actually contemplating canceling diner reservations with the B man on Saturday (in celebration of Valentine's Day), so that I can stay up here and get a jump start on my work for next week. I feel utterly overwhelmed today. The amount of work to level of energy ratio is quite perplexing.
So here's to hoping I manage to land on my feet tomorrow and I no longer desire to break my date this weekend. I'd like to not start the quarter off by giving up a semblance of a social life so soon. But we shall see.
And now I'm off to bed. I just can't stay awake any longer.
