Either my alarm didn't go off this morning, or I turned it off in my
sleep.  Whatever the case, I woke up at 10:30 for my 9:00 final in
6.046.  And out of all the people in my house who KNEW I had a 9:00
final, NO ONE woke me up... including my roommate...

sigh.  At least Prof. Leiserson was cool about it and let me take it in
the afternoon.  Of course, by then I had a headache the size of Manhattan,
and was too stressed and upset to give it my best shot.  Of course, I 
needed to get a good score on this test to pull my grade out of the 
borderline zone, too....

And so my afternoon was shot to hell.  I needed it to study for my 6.034
final tomorrow morning.  At this rate, I'll probably blow it too...
