So. Um.
I feel kinda bad for leaving that Epic 4 a.m. Meltdown on the front page of my journal, so:
Essay finished and turned in. Is probably crap but I don't really care, except I will when it comes back with the inevitable bad grade. Gah.
Bio professor (who is also a better and more understanding human being than I deserve) gave me another day to finish doing glossary entries, so that crisis is averted too.
Plans for the evening: Finish Chemistry homework that I don't really understand (but I'm going in for help! I really am! I can maybe not fail this class!) and go to bed as early as humanly possible. Should probably get back to that then.
Also: Does anyone else, when they're bored and brain-dead, re-read their own fic? I mean, I normally read other people's more than my own, but occasionally, I'll come across fic that are beautiful and eloquent but also absolutely destroy me (in a good way), and I don't feel like running the risk of getting sucked into one of those when my brain's on half-power to begin with. So I just re-read my stuff, because I know how it ends and the phrases are familiar, known.
Plus, when I re-read a fic and like it, it makes me feel a bit better about my writing as a whole. And the best way to recover from sleepless essaying is a quick writerly ego-boost, naturally.
(What's really sad is that the ones I ended up re-reading today were, for the most part, Those Fics What I Don't Talk About In Public Entries. I am secretly prouder of those than I am of almost anything I have written in near of a month. I mean, if nothing else, these got feedback. Good feedback.)
Back to Chem homework. And then good night, good night.
