It really was stupid...of me to ever think I could have succeeded. See, I went in expecting that for today, I'd be dead tired, but I'd be able to work through a significant portion of the night. Turns out that's not the case, though. While I'd undoubtedly have become tired today, I also would have become tired to the point of being incoherent last night. See, it's a two-way street. Go to bed when feeling like needing rest, wake up rested. That's what happened. Plan to put off sleep and deal with being tired, and if the plan is followed, end up beyond-exhausted during the night to the point of uselessness.
So it was a doomed effort. Either I was going to not succeed and be tired, or I was going to not succeed and only be a little bit tired. While I did get some work done, ultimately, the latter won out--I was not going to get what I needed. But I did cut down on my workload enough that I think if I can repeat the effort tonight, I might be able to get it all out. Well, maybe not all out, but mostly.
And I need that. My sister said it best. "You're running out of time." And I am. Very much so.
I need to get started.
