Yikes!

I've got my 12 sources, now I just need to skim them and deliver 6 pages of fiery justice! And when I say fiery justice I mean a steaming pile of crap. I work until 9, so I'll likely read/skim my sources here and write the damned thing when I get home. Meaning I'll be finished by 1 or 2 because of procrastination. Oh, Scott, I met a friend for lunch today on campus and while we were walking we ran into that pud-faced faux-intellectual that sits at Rob's table in Frampton's class (the one who made the comment about the whole myspace thing being "one of those things"). Complete tool (not that I actually needed an encounter with him to be able to say that with certainty). He tried to get me to sign up for a "free press" paper he was trying to start and kept complaining about the "oppressive" system of SDSU and wanted this thing to be a critique on the prints at SDSU like the Aztec and the Koala and the professors who won't allow liberties in writing. He was saying that the Koala was producing negative stereotypes and blah, blah, blah (I just said it wasn't funny, which it isn't). He made statements about people in "the arts" reading and reviewing his soon-to-be crap "publication." He seemed offended when I said no, which made me smile. That's my bit. Back to work.

UPDATE:

If I get off of my ass fast enough upon returning home, this paper should go rather quickly. But I won't. So it'll be a long night.

UPDATE 2:

Dammit, dammit, dammit! Right when I'm about to hunker down and get on this damned paper the anxiety hits and I can't think of a damned thing to say. I want a smoke to calm my nerves, but it's raining outside. Fuck, shit, balls. Screw it, I'm going outside. Marionette will keep me dry. At least I can always rely on my truck. Oh, Marionette, if only you were a real person. Actually, probably best you weren't. Sigh. 10:20 right now. Ok, death-stick time.

UPDATE 3:

Ok. It's almost midnight. I had my 20 minute smoke break and I just got out of the shower. I'm two pages into this paper and it's going faster than I'd anticipated. I guess that's what happens when you actually have "research" done. I'm guessing I'll have this done by 2am. This will be the only thing I have to do today, so I can sleep in a bit, turn in the paper, get to work and go home. Sigh. It's going to be a long day. It's coming down out there. I need a sandwich.
