Huzzah.

By anybody's count, it's Monday morning as I type this. It's 8:15 AM, a time when I ordinarily wouldn't be awake, except that I've been up around the clock, procrastinating, fretting, and sporadically working on my essay for English 255.

Over five pages into the current draft of said five-page essay, a thesis has finally come into view, and the essay has begun taking form. I figure I'm about halfway through. (Obviously, I'm going to be cutting some stuff in the final draft.) If all goes really well, it'll even be ready in time for class.

Break's over. Back to work...
