To: [they who wield the power]

Subject: so, problem...
I have overcommitted myself stupidly for the fall, and that's even without taking any possible burnout recovery/return to the team into account down the line. I'm going to need to juggle my language courses a little. Thankfully, that can be done easily. The Arabic can be changed to a once-a-week reading course - all of the students interested have taken the grammar course at least once. I reviewed the list of students for Russian - they're all advanced, so we can make that an upper-level course and hold it twice a week. Compresses the instructional hours, but I've always been in favor of that anyway.
Don't worry, I'm having to make similar arrangements elsewhere, too - I'm not just wimping out on the teaching as the path of least resistance. I should have some time tomorrow to come down and sort out the paperwork on the format changes if one of you will be in the office.
-N.
P.S.: Yes, I suck.
