DAAAAAAAAMN it
I'm not feeling well. And I've anxiety. A paper due on Monday and I CANNOT get it together.
I've been wearing pajamas to go to Taco Bell drivethru's for nearly all my meals and laying about on the heroin couch (it's a heroin couch coz it sucks you IN) and watching all the shows on Investigation ID. ALL of them--no matter how repugnant. And I'm not doing my work. I'm fairly humming with anxiety about it. I also saw a Pulitzer prize winner yesterday. He was Arrogance Personified but did a good impression of Gee Whiz. I'm a MESS. That is all.

See if you can con yourself into starting the project. That's the hardest part.
Start with a quick outline? Three or four bullet points? Then go get something to eat. Come back, add a few more bullets. Do the laundry. Start adding ideas, write a paragraph or two. Take a nap. Pretty soon, the ideas are coming fast and furious, and you stop wanting to do the other things...

Oh doesn't that kind of anxiety just SUCK! You think you need something to take for it its so bad, some pills or something. But the fastest bestest cure is doing whatever it was you were procrastinating about. I feel for you Bri.

I know Lj was just talkin' about actually *throwing* a keg - like a shotput.
![]() the masturbation thing...might work but I can't stop thinking about how just before I begin I reject myself as too needy.

Since you've been able to delay making any decisions about the future, and been fending off questions from others, and yourself, by using going to school as an excuse, the jig is almost up. So the problem is not the paper, the problem is what in hell you're going to do with your life after graduation.
Is that what's bothering you, bunkie? ![]() Well, get off that couch! Shave those nether regions! Write a killer paper! Put lipstick on your nipples! Graduate from Osama's cave! Seduce Mr Robinson! Show the world your big girl panties! ![]() ![]() ![]()

Do you need me to come down there and sort you out, missy? I apparently have most of Saturday free and I'm not entirely sure what to do with it.....

You won't learn anything if I do it for you. I'm just going to come and slap you until writing the paper becomes a preferable option
