BTRIPP

The past week has been an insane whirlwind of family stuff ... so much so, that I really ended up blowing off a lot of my school work ... which is now coming back to haunt me. I was supposed to have had my Case Study finished by the end of class today but I just had the basic part (80 points worth) plus one of the "extra skill sets" (5 points) done by the end of the day ... the instructor gave me till tomorrow morning to finish (since he knew my schedule had been hell since last Wednesday). Unfortunately, I have been pushing through with one hour of sleep here, two there, the past couple of days and at this point I'm a ZOMBIE ... I hate to "just leave it" at 85 points, but I have doubts that I'll be able to successfully complete any of the other stuff since my brain isn't working too well at this point. I think I'll work till 2am then sleep till 4 and then see what I can finish up. Bleh. That screaming sound you hear is my GPA hurtling earthward.

Man ... what is WITH things these days ... I know too damn many people who are just plain FUCKED economically ... this hit home tonight when I tried to log into http://www.ana2.com and found the authorization failing. It turns out that ana has had to drop most of the "comp" accounts she'd been giving out to cut down on bandwidth. Bummer. She'd done me the favor of putting me on the comp list a number of months ago due to MY economic crisis, and now she's going through much the same, with the prospect of having to move, get roomates, etc. Heavy sigh.

Anyway, in case you hadn't noticed, I had a couple of more poems from the past few days ... one here and one in the previous post. I haven't had any time to get caught up on the http://i.am/btripp poem site ... but maybe once I'm done with this case study I'll be able to at least get the May poems up.
