Thanks to a surprise project assigned today and due tomorrow, I wound up skipping my half hour afternoon nap. Based on the burning behind my eyes, though, I really should not have skipped it. I hadn’t gotten sleep last night as I was kept up doing homework and writing papers. The weekends were not the best of times to be assigning homework.

I was just putting the finishing touches on my project when I glanced at my phone, wondering how much longer I had until I would need to head to my next lesson. I was shocked when I saw that it was a quarter after 9. I checked my alarms, wondering why it hadn’t rung out. I nearly facepalmed as I realized that I had set it for 8:45 AM instead of PM.
