This day sucks.

I am bogged down in algebra class for the moment. There's some particular concept that has escaped me and is screwing me up. Each time I tried to go over something thoroughly in class for my own benefit, I'd look up and realize that the teacher had just gone over something new and now I'm missing that, too. Clearly I'm going to have to start doing my Friday homework in the Learning Center, and the only time I can do that is Friday after classes, which will cut into my already scant work hours, which will make money tighter and may require a larger loan. Stupid algebra. Also, if I can't pass algebra, I will never graduate or get a degree and I will be a bag lady. Not to put too much pressure on myself or anything.

I've gone way outside my comfort zone dealing with a friend. As a general rule, I'd rather flush my head in the toilet than tell someone they are worrying me or pissing me off, but today I skipped the toilet and told her both of these things. I am not looking forward to the ensuing discussion, as I would already rather go home and hide under my bed and never touch the Internets again than carry my actions through to their conclusions.

I fail at using the library and actually had a hard time finding the catalog, because I was annoyed at life and not paying attention. Go me.

I have a lot of errands to run today and I missed my bus while failing at the library, so now I'm a half hour behind schedule.

I'm sure none of this is helped by the fact that today I decided to drink coffee for the first time in like a month and the caffeine is really getting to me.

And just think, my day is only half over! :D

If there's anything I can do to help, at the least with the algebra, lemme know. I haven't taken algebra in so long, but I've taken so much calculus that I should've retained some of it, y'know?

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind. I think I'm just screwing up getting rid of parentheses in equations, plus the random fractions are exremely unhelpful. I should get it straightened out tomorrow when I talk to someone in the Learning Center.

If ever you need someone to laugh at you for willingly taking a math course, man, I am so here for you. Otherwise.

I totally fell asleep in biology today.

I'm not bad at algebra and should be on IM much of this week, up until Thursday anyway. Feel free to hit me up for help anytime.

I accidentally caught wind of some of that confrontation, but I know you well enough that I could tell you were just trying to help.
