Once again, all my efforts go to waste, due to our poor scheduling abilities - being the idiot that I am, I totally forgot to account for the travel time, and foolishly allowed myself to hope and go all out in preparation.

I want to find comfort in having gotten a better idea of "what works", but still can not let go of the disappointment.
