For what seemed like months all my dreams involved robotics. Aughhh!

I don't think you'll forget about them by "should'ng" it away.

Sounds like you're grieving the outcome - it'll take how long it takes. Bit by bit I'll bet you'll start looking towards what you learned and what you'll do differently next time.

That's what we did after a terrible year last year. We've made huge strides in many arenas this year. Being so low last year provided the motivation to highs this year.
