Math Again?

So today was different.  Even though I spent just around four
hours working for the church, I then spent seven hours, from four
thirty to eleven thirty, doing more algebra homework than I've ever
done in my life.

I went over to help a friend of mine, David Hoback, with a huge amount
of on line algebra course work he had to get done by tonight. 

We took section after section, quiz after quiz, and tests, and it stunk

But the worst thing of it was, that it wasn't easy.

This most certainly had to be the hardest "algebra" I'd ever covered.

I mean, I was going over things I remember learning in Pre-Calculus!

It was nuts.  I mean, to be honest, I just had some high level algebra kick my butt.

I had to learn all kinds of new stuff, and teach it I guess, and do it.

Ugh, it was an.. interesting ordeal.

And to think, I thought I was done with math of any substantial difficulty in life.....
