This is *exactly* what it was like! It was frustrating, but I can only blame myself. I haven't been getting much sleep lately and I think that's why I was zoning out. Heck, I'm so sleep right now that's it's hard to focus on writing this email. Imagine trying to teach a class in this condition! Well, I'm certainly glad there are others who can relate, just as I suspected. Time for some more coffee before I nod off here at my desk. Thanks!
