Not complaining, not at all, but...
...it's quite a balancing act to start a relationship and keep up with my classes.
Granted, I'm in an online program, something I frequently refer to as the "Newgroup from Hell", but I'm not quite at the level where I can say, "Sweetie, I know we only get weekends to hang out, but I've got 2,000 words to hash out and I don't want to do it all Monday."
Now I got a lot done in the days before the weekend, in fact everything but those 2,000 words, including 1k and 1.5k, and a team PowerPoint that clocks in at 17 slides and 15 minutes' worth of presentation.
I will say this: The fun of hanging out with her far, far, FAR outweighs the annoyance of doing a paper in one big orgy of research and writing.
