i'm coming slow but speeding...

2:08 am. i have procrastinated long and hard on the word i have to accomplish, and it is finally time for me to get cracking. this is my peak hour of creativity.

but there is a problem. (isn't there always though?)

it seems as if iTunes has it out for me. any time i need to push to the grindstone and work without such trite interruptions as, oh, i dont know, THINKING, the mix pulls a shifty trick, as it did tonight. so instead of a non-thought-provoking mix to work by, i am greeted by "i'll back you up" by dmb, "what you want" by the john butler trio, "i saw" by matt nathanson, and to top it all off in perfect ironic style: "crush" by dmb...

well, there goes my motivational streak. i blame this on myself though. i waited until it was WAY too late to start these papers, and now my music mix is punishing me. "ha." it proclaims. "i have the ultimate power over your stream of thought tonight." and i have let it conquer me, as this post has proved. humbug.

this whole chronic procrastination bit is starting to weigh heavy on me. i need to get this work done, or else i can expect not to get any sleep until 24 hours from now, which could prove for a pretty ugly friday. from what i've been hearing, i wont even have time to think, let alone take a breather. perhaps this would be a good time to take stock in Red Bull... from the looks of this past week i'm going to need it. oh well, such is the life of the restaurant worker.

oh good, some mike doughty. now there's some music i can write to without all that silly "thinking" nonsense (please insert the sarcastic voice into the previous sentence). looks like it's time to bust out the techno music and hope for the best.

pray for my sanity, and my drive home from work tomorrow (and by tomorrow, i mean 2am friday morning). it's sure to be a doozie.
