I'm either very good, or very bad

Now that was one classy piece of procrastination. I'll say it right now.

Let's look at the timeline, shall we?

T-minus six weeks: Paper due date and format is announced. It is to be a twelve-page paper with a minimum of five sources, and is due on 4 PM Friday the 24th.

T-minus one and a half weeks: Subject of paper comes up in conversation with classmate. Procrastinatrix (hereafter referred to as PX) is asked what she thinks she might do for the paper and comments off-handedly that she thinks she'll do myasthenia gravis.

T-minus two days: PX looks for books on myesthenia gravis in library and realizes that nobody writes about it. Changes subject to Huntington's disease, takes out one book on the subject.

T-minus one day: PX changes topics again, this time to multiple sclerosis, and takes out three books on it.

T-minus sixteen hours (12 AM): PX writes outline for paper on MS.

T-minus fourteen hours (2 AM): PX finds two additional sources on MS and writes bibliography for paper.

T-minus twelve hours (4 AM): PX starts writing text of actual paper. Is distracted by fanfic.

5 AM: PX returns to writing paper.

5:30 AM: PX quits and goes to bed, having written one page.

9 AM: PX gets out of bed and goes to job.

1 PM: Lunchtime. Leisurely half hour on the college lawn.

1:30 PM: PX goes to computer library to work, with two and a half hours on the clock.

1:30-2:30 PM: PX goofs around on internet.

2:30 PM: PX starts writing.

3:30 PM: PX finishes editing twelfth page and uses the remaining half an hour to swear at the network printer.

4 PM: PX hands in paper, and goes to get hair cut.
