I tried not to let classes get in the way of my education while in college. I learned to prioritize.
The crankiness of a toddler that is too tired to sleep can be extreme...my sympathies, Revkah!
In addition to der hund's troubles, our dryer stopped working last Thursday, first they could get out to fix it was today. Holy "It's a small world"...the guy who came to fix it was my neighbor 15 years ago in Marion. I'm amazed he recognized me, unless he remembered my name...he asked if I lived at <some name I didn't recognize> and I said no, then he said "up in Marion", and then I said, yeah, I lived in Marion, where are you talking? He described it, and I'm like "Yeah, that's me", and he said "I used to be your neighbor"...then I recognized him...kind of. I could see a little, but he would have gone from like 40-ish to mid 50's-ish, so he's changed a lot. Of course, I went from 23 to 38, so I'm sure I have too, but for him, we're talking from black longish hair to gray, short hair.
I refuse to color it. I've had gray hair since I was 30 or so. Must be something that afflicts people with pitch black hair color.
Guy I went to HS with was about 50% gray by the time he graduated HS. Sucked for him, but was great for everyone else since he could always buy booze.
Wow, that's early. I used to shave my beard and mustache the last 10 years or so. Once I let it grow again, I was shocked by the amount of gray.
With two old dudes, if they *don't* skeedaddle, things could get weird quickly (unless you're into that).
My MIL, all her siblings, and her dad have wonderful heads of hair. The problem is going prematurely white. To me, they all also have youthful faces. (You wouldn't guess my husband's grandpa is 87)
The slight problem? Husband's adopted. He's got the male pattern baldness going.

My dog is a stud at that.
Got into the doctor this morning, I have strep throat. Didn't realize prolific vomiting can accompany that. Then he was all drama queen about me being dehydrated and having such a high fever and said he could admit me if I wanted. Uh, no thanks. I can drink tons, my throat doesn't even hurt. And he wouldn't let me drive home, so I had to get two of my kids up to come get me and the car, then keep one of them up until the pharmacy opened so he could get my drugs. Kind of feel worse now that I have started the antibiotics.
Ugh! I hope you feel better after more sleep.
One of my favorite being sick memories was when a friend of the family made is hot Jello to drink. It was supposed to help the sore throat.
Last time I had strep I asked the doc for the shot in the kiester. I was feeling better by that evening, and I didn't have to go through ten days of pills big enough to choke a horse.
Glad you're diagnosed & on the path to recovery. Feel better soon!
