Go The Distance

Do you know what it takes to get something done?

Right now it's taken me waking up, falling back to sleep, making a car dealership appointment, deep cleaning my kitchen stovetop, and starting this blog to mentally prepare myself to write this essay.

Finals week. Yippie.

It's not like writing these final essays is hard. It's not--it's practically a walk in the park. That's probably what makes it so hard though: a walk in the park can be done in three hours, depending on how big your park is, so I keep pushing it off and pushing it off until I can no longer have three hours to waste anymore.

I see an all-nighter and a very grumbly day at work in store for me tomorrow.

What's funny is this is the exact same thing I tell myself every time I have to write an essay, and I hate the whole process--and myself for delaying it--every single time.

You'd think I'd learn by now.
