I feel like I want to ball up and do nothing.

But I can't, because I am an adult. I am an engineer. I am a wrestler.

This week has been really hard. Trying to get back into my routine, figuring out the new sleep schedule (which sucks, I don't like going to bed early), and generally feeling like my days are long as heck.  It was nice last semester, when my classes were reasonably spread out. I think I like the gaps between classes. My days were, in truth, longer than I would have liked but I could still stay up late most nights and I those hours were conducive to my homework.

Now, I have straight runs that burn me out. I want to go to my classes, I want to learn the material, but I am often just too tired to pay attention. Hopefully by next week I'll have figured it out. I can't afford to change my schedule now because if I do I will likely lose my spots in three of my classes.

I've climbed too much it seems. My hands gave out on me, the skin peeled from my calluses on almost every digit and more often in two or three places. I think tomorrow will be a rest and recovery day, while I try to learn the miracles of StarCraft.  StarCraft has peeked my interest. Why, now, after so many ages I don't know, but I have finally gotten the demo. I have been playing bot matches and its fun. They take 10 minutes, which is a really nice change from DotA. I feel like I could actually just sit down to play some StarCraft, whereas I have to plan my whole evening around a game of DotA which makes it more of a chore.

And I still have to talk about why I hate trains. But I am procrastinating on that one. That rant will be saved for a day when I need a topic to blog about.
