So, I signed up for an overview of Operating Systems for the summer. I didn't want to lose my academic momentum, yet the next math class (precalc) wasn't offered online during summer session, and my grad advisor recommended this class because it came with no prerequisites.

It was a quick decision - quicker than I like, being of the inclination to want to weigh every concievable possibility before making a choice, but I was cutting it really close (class starts tomorrow) and it was "either sh*t or get off the pot". I guess I was hoping for something "light" (as in, no reams of practice problems) over the summer.

Nah. This is a grad level course complete with a paper. The first paper I've written since...oh, I don't know when - undergrad, over 10(!) years ago? With style and footnote requirements and all the attendant paranoia over crappy writing/flawed arguments/inadvertent plagiarism/the fact that my liberal arts background didn't prepare me to write on technical subjects...

I fear I may be in way over my head.

Yep - nervous now.
