HA! *I'm* in college as well (at 42 years old, 3 kids, etc.); innit a gay, mad whirl?? How are you coping? For the most part I manage to keep my head above water, and I really love the intellectual stimulation, and I think I appreciate the experience a great deal more than I did at 20. Even if your "real" work keeps you mentally engaged (I managed the education department of a museum for years before this), there's something very salutary about having different approaches, interpretations, etc., required of you; it's good to keep those muscles flexed. Of course, having a supportive partner to help keep the house running, (other people's) homework supervised, and meals on the table goes a long way to making it possible! Best of luck; it's nice to know that others are as crazy as I am... ~D
