Thus far:

1 am – 4 am. Talk to B online, do other non-paper stuff.
4.15a – 5a. Do some writing. About two pages.
5a – 9.10a. Sleepy time.
9.30a – 11.15a. Jl MC 521: interesting because a group presented on the ISUAA web site and what it “meant” — that was out their ass, believe me.
11.15a – 11.45a Various fucking around: loiter, talk to Debbie, check e-mail, etc.
11.45a – 12.45p Buckle down. Current count: page 6, 1.3″ — surprises even me. Of course I devoted 4 pages to Section I…
12.50p Journalling break. Will continue to update. But perhaps now a turkey dog…
1.45p 7 at 3.3″ — We’ve hit a patch of rough sledding, and time is beginning to become a factor (deadline is 6).
1.50p Yeah, it’s definitely a block. A short interlude seems called for. Perhaps a little ice cream.
1.50p – 2.50p Hmm. A bit longer than planned? That’s okay. Had some munchies and a nice conversation with the sister. Ready to get back on task.
2.50p – 3.30p Picked up again at 7/3.3″ and got to 8/6.6″. Bib is now 13, unintentionally surpassing Debbie (12) and Jesse (8).
3.45p 9/4″
4.00p 10/1.3″ Now it’s just getting silly. I always get this way when I’m writing for length. My most recent sentence:

Most important, for members of low educational attainment groups and/or lower socioeconomic strata (i.e., the groups that are usually left on the wrong side of the “digital divide”), to what extent does the Internet provide a vehicle (or impediment) to the closing of the gap and (the presumably concomitant) increased level of participation in the political process?

Yeah, I threw in “concomitant” for all you haters out there. Now for a shower I think.

4.40p Ahhh, there’s nothing quite like a slow wank hot shower to relax you when a deadline looms. Follow that up with a pair of lucky boxers, 3 Double Stuf Oreo cookies, and a playful call with Debbie, and I’m ready to put this bitch to bed.
5.20p By Georgia, I think we’ve got it! Added a few more paras, plopped on the bib at the end (it counts toward length), and we’re up to 13/3.4″ Of course, that’s due in no small part to our fonty friend Georgia. We love you baby! And why? Simple:

5.31p Look, I’m Pretentious Title Man: “Internet-Mediated Minority Group Participation in the U.S. Political Process.” Now off to print.

Tonight’s agenda: the class, 6-9; eating, after; barhopping?
