Looks like electronic spaghetti to me, lol. Assuming that it actually works, even halfway -- well done indeed!
...also, I see at least one missing word in the text. An 'extraordinarily (ridiculously) small'... what?
Typos and the like are of course forgiven, because laying that thing out just /had/ to leave you a little scatterbrained ;) I daresay if I tried to do all that insanely-dense routing and whatnot, the top of my head would blow off!

it's driving me nuts. when i go lie down to sleep and close my eyes in the dark i'm *literally* seeing tracks and vias. as in, "not in my imagination", i'm LITERALLY seeing ghostly after-images from the days' routing efforts.

Dude, it's time for what folks around my part of the world call a 'vaycay' ;)
Go on holiday (as they say in Britain) for a couple days. Speaking of Britain -- a few days in the UK will do *anyone* some real wonders. Countryside, city, doesn't matter. London is a beautiful city, and the English countryside is equally exquisite... I wish I could be in either place right now myself... I have a friend in King's Lynn, which I've not been to -- ah, but funding is a problem for me.
I have so many nice memories of travelling abroad, back when Mom and I had a little money... when we arrived in what we both (somewhat jokingly) still refer to as "the great walled city of Chester" -- and the taxi driver there learned that Chester is my mother's maiden name -- he said, "Well, welcome home! Where have you been the last four hundred years?"
...I could go on but (a) someone would inevitably accuse me of spamming (probably will, anyways) and (b) I'd probably cry. I miss travelling.
You should get some memories like that, too, Luke. You know the old line as well as I do. "All work and no play..." ;) so go outside and play! Make time for it. No excuses ;)

i already feel like i'm on holiday - some of the most amazing places...
...so play tourist for a couple days ;) maybe even a week. The point is, you need a break from all this tech work. Go smell flowers and do frivolous things -- and enjoy yourself while you do, dammit! Trust me when I tell you it's extremely necessary brain maintenance. (Steven Covey would file it under "sharpening the saw" ;) ) I won't presume to speak for everyone, but I promise that *I* will still be here when you get back.
