Learning about limits

Calculus defines the concept of a limit as the behavior of a function as it's argument get close to a point, or as it becomes arbitrarily large.  Well, the past two months I've been learning about my behavior as a function of the amount of work I pile on to myself.  I've been increasing the workload to an arbitrarily large amount.  These past two months I've written the first draft of two chapters on SharePoint, passed two Microsoft Certifications to achieve MCAD, and worked more than 50 hours/week at my full time job.  Combine this with all the social activities required by the holiday season and I figure I've been killing myself.   I look at my time sheets where I've attempted to track my Professional Development activities (which include my studying and book writing) and I found that I've crammed more than 180 hours in - that's more than 4 weeks worth of full time effort!  And, given my small financial reward for these activities, I've been working for half my normal rate (what I earn at Intellinet)

OMG - I'm really tired and looking forward to getting some sleep!

BTW - Code Camp is coming up on the 20th!
