Can't Sleep Paper Will Eat Me

[sadlikeknives]

Agh this draft is due at two and I have one paragraph and obviously I can't sleep now because I'd never get up in time for my first class and I have to finish this draft. I have one paragraph; one short paragraph, and I need at least three pages single spaced.

Could somebody please just shoot me now?

at least your paper's due at 2...mine's due at 9!

okay. I'm looking at the time on the original comment I posted, and LJ is saying that it's 11:17. I posted that at 6:17 a.m. Just wanted to make sure there was no confusion!

I have no idea what timecode my LJ is set for, but it is not Alabama time, yo.

Eeeeek.

This is admittedly a draft, but it's still due, y'know? So the plan is to write three crappy pages and fix it over the weekend. The problem is that I have maybe a third of a page.

Tell me, does To W.B. Yeats, Maud Gonne was always The Woman, the standard against which all others must be measured, and the lens through which all womankind must be viewed. This is illustrated in the poem “No Second Troy” sound like a reasonable approximation of a thesis to you?

I understand. Mine's a draft too. I have 4 crappy pages that will hopefully morph into 4 wonderful pages over the weekend!

I think it sounds like a pretty good thesis. It's much better than mine: For Charlie Marlow, not only is labor used as a means of measuring and maintaining morality and sanity, but Marlow also uses labor as a way to differentiate himself from his imperial surroundings.

My thesis has a weird bearing on the topic I'm supposed to be writing on, but the stated topic had something to do with women, so I'm running with it. It can be a variation on the topic.

Wow, you already have four pages? And I have no idea what book that's for.

Bang bang.

You'd think we'd quit procrastinating since we stress out about the overnight paper every time. YOU CAN DO IT, VAMPERINO.

Of course I haven't quit procrastinating. Obsessively checking my e-mail? Check. Fic I've already read twice open? Check. Paper looking stupider every time I add a word? Check.
