Latin. I took Latin way back in middle school but had to drop it because I was an asshat (probably also undiagnosed adhd). I've since started a serious Roman coin collection and in order to study and appreciate them more fully, a basic command of Latin seemed key to me. If it works out, I might try (ancient) Greek next, but I realize that's a whole other can of worms still.
