It’s crunch time. I have a big paper due on Friday, but I’m determined to finish it. Tonight. Because tomorrow night I want to go play with my friends. So I promise myself that I will finish it tonight. No matter what.

But it kind of reminds me of those nights back in elementary school, high school, even college, when I had a big project due, and all I really wanted to do was go hide in a corner and cry. I’m not ready to cry just yet, but it’s only 9:30 p.m. Give me two or three hours and I’ll be seeing things a bit less clearly! If I’m still here after midnight, well, it won’t be pretty folks.

And remind me to tell you about the class I helped with tonight as part of my grad assistant position. Seeing those students made me miss my old wardrobe, which only consisted of t-shirts, flip-flops, and going out clothes. Ahh, the good old days!

Back to work.
