    While I wait for the next can of RedBull to kick in, I’m taking a break.

    It’s already been 11 straight days of trying to catch up, and I’ve still got over 80 blatt to go. Let’s see, there’s 20 in baba basra, 16 in nidda, 2.5 in shelach, 8 in derech eretz zuta, 22 in balak, and I don’t know what else.

    And it’s boring as all get out. I mean, it’s one thing to learn, but just to sit here and shnaim shas v’echad artscroll is driving me out of my mind! (Oh, yeah, and I’m short the artscroll of 3 blatt in taanis.) I haven’t seen my kids in days, and my trophy wife is hiding out at her parents. I’d like to just sit and enjoy yom tov and the sukka, but all I can do is sit and eat shehakol stuff with my nose in my gemara.

    At least we have 2 days of shemini atzeres.

    first of all did you get a license from Agudas Yisroel to learn daf Hayomi? and the what about Dirshu? now if you would use Oz Vehadaer

    or Meoros HaShas as reported here http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/news/General+News/135394/Unprecedented-Success-in-Meoros-HaShas.html

    or Shas Illuminated as reported here http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/news/Promotional+Content/135300/Shas-Illuminated%3A-The-Newest-Daf-Yomi-Revolution.html maybe it would be easier.

    I just hope your Daf Hayomi license isn”t revoked.

    Why not take a break? Go outside and drive in your car for a while and make sure to pick your nose at the traffic lights!

    Are you missing 80 Vilna blatt, or 80 Artcroll pages? That would only be like 15-20 regular pages!!
