Procrastination

I am a stupid MF-er again. It's about 1:45 a.m. and I woke up 45 minutes ago, so now I'm sitting down to work on this fucking opinion. I was so tired earlier, and James really wanted cuddling, so I laid down on the couch and he cuddled on top of me and slept. And I slept as well, although I only wanted to sleep until about midnight. So I'm sucking down some coffee and getting all this stuff laid out in front of me to begin re-tackling the thing. I hate how I do my best work at least starting things in the middle of the night!!

Now, I know I'm not going to be completely done by 6:30 a.m., when I should get in the shower, because there's a lot of stuff to go through here and organize and write. And normally I stay at home finishing the thing since I'm on a roll, and when I'm at work there are too many distractions. I could do that, and go in at noon.

BUT, on Friday, a few of us set in motion an absolutely fabulously perfectly amazing joke on my boss - we're sending him a fake letter that will freak him out, and he'll be thinking it's a fake, but not completely sure at the same time! His reaction is going to be PRICELESS!!! When I left on Friday, we had addressed the letter and put a stamp on it, and the plan was to send it through the mail to make it look legitimate. So if they actually put it in the mail, then it will probably get delivered tomorrow afternoon and I'd be there when the whole thing goes down, to see his reaction. But if they just put it in his mailbox without actually sending it, then he'll be opening it tomorrow morning. And I seriously have to be there when he opens it! So I'm thinking that I'll work until 6:30 and then shower and get ready like normal, but try calling The Meat before I leave (since he gets there early) to see what they did with the letter. Then I'll be ready to go in or I can stay and finish stuff here. Yes, I know my priorities are a little skewed - I should be worried about getting this done instead of worried about missing out on the joke going down - but I don't care! I just have to be there!!

I'm listening to one of the CDs I've downloaded - Lucinda Williams, Live at the Fillmore - and I'm absolutely LOVING IT!!! I've downloaded so many new things in the past couple weeks, so many great new things! However, I need to switch to my work music (ever since studying for the Bar Exam) - Radiohead. The only new thing I can listen to while working is Peter Gabriel's soundtrack to Rabbit-Proof Fence, which is just AMAZING!

I'm going to stop wasting time (oh, for example, spending ten minutes googling to find the picture that I put in this post) and hunker down now!! :)
