When Your Life Consists of Putting Off Writing THE PAPER
To be honest, I just haven't felt like writing recently.
And perhaps, not so recently.
In fact, I've spent a lot of time whining .... and complaining ... groaning ... moaning ... digging my heels in ... getting all stubborn and pig-headed ...
It's not been my best past few weeks.
However, in two days, I will be done. Done with my latest class, and I will be two more classes away from being COMPLETELY DONE.
When I was a kid, my mother said I used to spend an entire day complaining and crying about getting busy and cleaning up my room -- I can remember thinking that it was too overwhelming. So, instead of just getting to it, I'd cry and scream and attempt to negotiate my way out of it, and by the time I was done, my day was wasted, and I could have just shoved all the crap under my bed and been done with it all.
So, on Wednesday morning, when I arise, hopefully, a little later than usual, and I realize that I have absolutely no ugly writing deadline hanging over my head, I plan to do a little happy dance, wherein I will attempt to NOT throw my back out. And I will be celebrate and be thankful ....
Right now, I plan to whine a bit more before I dig in my heels and crank out this last paper.
Bear with me, dear readers. I will be back soon ...
