How do keep your sanity when you are FT worker and student?

I mean how? Right now I'm working like 40-45 hours a week, worked like seven straight days since my last day off and I'm taking four college classes on top of that. I mean I know I'm not the only person that does it but sh!t....On top of that my fiance has been depressed lately and lacking motivation so I've been the full-time house cleaner too. Today I've done a double sink full of dishes, fed the cat (which I'm not too fond of), washed the clothes, put up a basket of clothes, cleaned the bathroom, went to a three-hour class, and now have to work from 1:00 - 9:45 PM tonight. Yeah today is an extreme example but still, it sucks. I'm a classic example of why ephedrine (and caffiene pills) need to stay legal. Sometimes its hard to chill out and not lose your mind.

I know what you mean. I'm working 45-50 hours/5 days +plus running a growing consulting firm on the side and taking 1 class. I have no time to sleep, eat, etc. However, I'm taking today off.

Well, I'm gonna go to work now. Good to see one reply before I go, just so I know to suck it up and just do it. Good to just get it off my mind. Hopefully there will be even more insane schedules to hear about later.
