Brandie, do you have any extra information on what type of timeout it is? Is it a lock timeout, a remote query lockout, a network timeout, a login timeout?
I'm trying to recreate the issue in my sandboxes today out of curiousity and it would help if I knew which exact one to muck with the sandboxes.
Never stop learning, even if it hurts. Ego bruises are practically mandatory as you learn unless you've never risked enough to make a mistake.
