I suck at things that aren't procrastination

I have a paper due on the 27th that I absolutely need to have written by the end of tomorrow. I'm going up to Dublin to meet my parents on Friday morning and I won't get back to Cork till Monday evening. John is then staying in Cork on Tuesday and Wednesday so I'll be pretty much occupied those days. 

I also am just now realizing that what I was going to write my paper on does not actually answer the essay topic very well, so I have to do a lot of re-configurations. Also I am having a severe ADD attack (or something) and I cannot, for the life of me, focus or even write coherent sentences. 

Word count: 127/1500

Balls.

it's a red-letter day for america

 I was so happy about Obama this morning that I almost cried a little. That may have also had to do with my sleep deprivation. But mostly it was happiness. 

Today is not only a landmark day in terms of electing the first black president of the US of A, but also in the way that, for the first time ever, I got to use the words "fuck" and "cunt" in an essay exam. So that was good.

Also, I leave tomorrow afternoon for Amsterdam!! I'm so freaking excited I can't even handle it.
