Eh, after much thinking, and talking with friends and family, I have decided that:

1. I will stick with the class for a week or so.
2. If it gets to be too much, I will drop it
3. I will add a classroom class that starts later in the semester and is taught by someone different

It should be noted, the professor teaching the class is question is also teaching 3 other classes this semester, 2 of which started this week along with mine.

Note: My school does adult education at night in 8 week segments for most classes. Classes meet twice a week for about 3 hours per night. My online class in question here lasts the entire semester. The classroom class I would sign up for is an 8 week class that starts in March.

Thanks to all who listened to me bitch, whine, moan and think.
