Intermission - The Importance of Sleep

Sorry, everybody, no Blender progress this week. I've been spending the last 3 days playing catchup on multiple responsibilities at once, and didn't get to completing the tutorial I'd selected like I meant to for Thursday. I think that the thing to do might be to make a quick little PSA instead, to tide things over until next week, when the Blender project will properly begin.

For a person who needs a full night's sleep to feel fully functional the day after, I find myself staying up late a lot, either just doing nothing or scrambling to scratch out homework for a class that I had two weeks to do. I'm no stranger to all-nighters, and I'm typing this blog entry up after basically two in a row at this point, and so I feel that I'm in exactly the right frame of mind to remind everybody that this state of mind sucks like nothing else. The unfortunate effects it has on short-term mental ability is a real doozy, and it doesn't do anybody any good. Steer clear of the practice wherever possible.

That said, is this the last all-nighter I'll pull? Of course not, I've still got stuff to do.
