All right now... yes this sucks, but the game ain't over and the lesson is already learned! There has to be a way to salvage this. I'm sure your pissed/ bummed/ over it. But Don't Quit now!

I momentarily forgot my unblemished record and decided to do something I'd wanted to do for 20 years. As always, reality whacked me hard.
