Digging a hole and falling in

It's the first day of classes. I'm already in over my head. I swore I wouldn't be. This semester would be different, I promised God, myself and others.

Oops.

I'm sitting in a stairwell in Middlebush right now. I bought a piece of cake from Starbucks and I'm eating the crumbs from the bottom of the bag, checking my e-mail, and cross-referencing my calendar. I volunteered to go cover a city council meeting tonight, then write a story about it. But my car doors are frozen shut and I was supposed to go to a friend's surprise party tonight . . .

Oops. Oops again.

Forget digging a hole. I've already fallen in.
