Studying for my captain's license

I've had the study book for a while, with off and on spurts of studying. This time around I'm going to give it a shot. I figure that if I pass and make it happen, that's obviously pretty cool, and if I stop studying, at least I'll have a lot more information in my head than I do now for navigation, rules of the road, and deck operations.

I'm trying to dedicate one hour a night to studying; alternating between rules of the road (which can range from interesting to down right snooze-a-thon).

In addition to passing four modules of written tests, there's a drug test, sea time verification, and off course a fee.

Maybe this is just a short lived burst of enthusiasm because the rig is back and I can be a sailor again, but having a captain in the family can't be anything but good! And I'll be able to post interesting little factoids that I learn in my studies!
