Juggling Fail

So... I am admittedly a busy person. I like to have a lot to do. I like having responsibility, and I'm quite good at doing many things at once (not just multitasking, but having multiple on-going projects). This past month... I basically failed at that.

I've had two bouts of being ill (one from food poisoning, one from eating food that I'm allergic to, but that wasn't on purpose). I've had a round of exams, a fair bit of traveling, 2 major events to organise, and then someone heaped 2 more projects on my shoulders on top of my studying and working.

I think of it like this... Most people juggle 3 balls easily. I'm sitting here with 7 in the air (obviously challenging, but manageable) and some jackass comes along and says wow... that's cool... and tosses 2 more into the mix. Now there are 9, I'm not good at 9, but I don't have a choice. So I'm looking to toss these extra balls to someone else, share the work load, and get back to doing 7 well rather than 9 barely. And of course you can't drop them... Balls... (Hence why my new cuss word has become "balls")

So... The Program isn't going to be done just yet. I literally haven't had time to sleep, let alone write. I'm so sorry. Please know that I have the story line bouncing around in my head, but with little time to sit down and actually get it on paper. It is coming! I promise! It won't be tomorrow, and I'm so sorry its been delayed. It isn't forgotten. And I haven't forgotten about you guys. I'm trying to finish it before the end of March, but I'm not going to make any promises (with the way things are going, it may be mid-April). Sorry, sorry, sorry. Mea Culpa.
