Already it seems there won't be enough hours in the day for what I have planned.
It feels greedy to have not one, but two opportunities come my way in such a short time. Like some cosmic hand is going to come and give me a good back hand'er. I don't feel like I deserve to be this fortunate but I do know I can't pass it up. I can also say that it would be great to do both.
