My brain simply cannot process any more.
I'm going to sleep. Wake up hopefully refreshed, work on this chapter and the one before it, and send them both to the DA by 5. Hopefully ten hours will suffice to get these two chapters in some sort of coherent order.
This means that I'll have all of Wednesday night and Thursday day and night to complete the last three chapters. One of them remains to be written (the outro), and the rest is just a matter of editing.
I'm SDC! SOSOSOSOSOSOSODC!
