Tomorrow is my world history exam, and we have to memorize the capitals of 50 foreign countries. If I had a photographic memory, this task would be a cinch. Then I could simply flip through an atlas and absorb the details of each map without any mental exertion. Instead, studying for this world history exam is going to be climbing Mount Everest without a harness. Maybe I’ll go to bed early and indulge in a breakfast of scrambled eggs and toast piled high. But I’m not feeling very confident about what happens after breakfast.

Comfort — "indulge" here means to give oneself a pleasurable treat (enjoy/overdo the breakfast), not hunger, data, or heroism.
