Apparently accessible tortilla chips are still a trigger. Taco Tuesdays, just say no.
New class is looking like more like six hours per homework, so I think I can catch up with the two assignments and then take the test Sunday even with travel, and with some exercise. Also, the homework is more fun - I'd rather get a simulink model to work than pour through pages of derivations. And I think will fit better with travel, like tournaments or rogaines.

I am making it easier on myself by saying I don't have to do the entire media item, just "enough", where weekdays that's anything approaching 30 minutes. If I want, I can watch the end on the floor, no worries.
Homework #1 in new class done! On to #2 tomorrow & Friday, then an onslaught of videos until I fire up the test sometime Sunday when I get back.

I have one, and only one goal for tomorrow: successfully transfer from the ultra hard vehicle dynamics to the independent study version.
I dislike giving up, but I do not know my undergrad dynamics and differential equations well enough to keep up. I feel dumb for being dumb, but I suppose you get rusty in 20 years of not doing something....
I could potentially be cutting my homework load by 90%, based on my glimpse of the first two assignments in the independent study. I would have to do both of those homework this week and take the test this weekend, but my hunch is that it's less work.
