Pardon My Panic

School.

OH MY GOD.

Winter quarter started this week. I have two lit classes, inductive logic, and astronomy.

We had a "diagnostic quiz" on grammar in a lit class on Monday. Now, keep in mind, I am a writer. I mean, I write for a living. People pay me to write. I got 54% on this quiz.

Boy, do I feel dumb.

The other lit class, so far, so good, we haven't done much yet except spend a whole 90 minute class INTRODUCING OURSELVES. Sheesh. Logic, well, that's kind of weird, but fun.

But Astronomy? It's a gen ed class, 100-level. You'd think it would be fairly simple, right? I'm looking over the ppt slides for tomorrow's lecture, and I read the chapter in the book, and I feel like it's going Right Over My Head. And not just in a punny kind of way, either.

You know, because it's astronomy. Oh, never mind.

Just pat me on the back and say, there, there, it'll be OK. Yeah. It'll be OK. Who needs A's, anyway?
