Okay. Tonight I have three choices--I can do my evil English project, I can write, or I can continue to refresh the forums and my friends page until 8:00.
Right. The English project. The English project I REALLY do not want to do, that I probably could not finish tonight. If I tell my parents I need to stay up later to work on the project they will yell at me until Kingdom Come for not telling them earlier, but there's a moderately high chance that I could be called on to present first tomorrow. I could also feign sickness and stay home tomorrow, and work on it during the day, or tell my English teacher I had carpal tunnel syndrome over the holiday from NaNoWriMo and hope she'd be sufficiently impressed by me writing a novel to let me off the hook. (I didn't actually participate in NaNo, by the way, beyond the first week or so. Oh well.)
I could also write. I have not really written anything since that KMFDM slash, but vague ideas have been chasing themselves around in my head lately and I feel I should write something. And not the outline for my project either. The list has been slow, my muse is starting to poke me again, and writing would all around be a Good Thing if I could actually get any concrete ideas.
Or I could just spend the rest of the night wasting brain cells on the same sites I've checked for updates twenty times today. Boring, maybe, but it has months of routine behind it.
Advice?
