This relationship thing is going to end me. But it will be a joyful end. In the past week, I have lost an estimated 20 hours of sleep, lost three nights of study time, and spent only about 6 waking hours at home. OK, that last number is an exercise in hyperbole. I am not as skilled in exaggeration as We-evil, but I manage.
The rational part of me, loaded with logic and reason, says this is pretty much "new toy" syndrome. Things will normalize before long. The irrational part of me, the one largely influenced by exposure to We-evil, wants this to continue as long as possible.
If it does continue, however, I need to re-evaluate my study habits. My current extra-curricular activities are incompatible with my class work.

And here I was hoping you would have the sense to take a responsible approach to it all like Thumper and I did, where our work didnt suffer and neither did time with friends for our "new toy" syndrom part of our relationship. Sad thing about that was, we kept having people waiting for us to just up and dissapear and to start slacking badly in other ways and we never did. I sometimes wonder if people were hoping things would go that way though so that they could have an excuse to break me and Thumper up.
The problem with that is both you and Thumper had come off recent relationships. I have just ended a dry spell the like of which are warned about in religious texts around the world. "Sense" didn't enter into many of the earlier decisions. I'm sure things will normalize before long.
Don't fucking bet on it. I'd had the inverse of a dry spell, an I've had my new toy longer than you've yours (slightly, to be sure, but still..). I'll let you know when sense returns to me, so you have a timeline for yours. In the mean time, I encourage you to continue what you're doing (I hear you're acquitting yourself nicely - you make a mentor proud)and perhaps your next class load should include anatomy... so you can study and play at the same time. Also good is trading good grades for new kinds of play. Good luck, and remember: 2:1 is an acceptable ratio, but 3:1 keeps `em coming back for more.
One more thing, do you know anyone (personally, i mean, not your intellectual knowledge that there's a psycho who wants Sky dead and Thumper back) who wants those two to break up? I'd rather see him happy with her for the rest of their lives, but I guess paranoia knows no logic.
