well, I turned in my seminar paper at 5:35 today. The office with the mailboxes closes at 5:30 but the clerk stayed extra, just for me. She's a good kid. My prof came around 5:40 and collected them.
It's been a LONG day. When I woke up, at 4:50 am or so, I wasn't sure I could finish. (She would take late papers without any problem, so the pressure was all self-imposed.) I worked for 3 hours; went and had office hours; came home for lunch and to collect B; went back to school; wrote like crazy; met with one of my committee members (he was in a mood to chat, TS for me); wrote and printed like crazy.
I am quite sure the final copy is full of typos. I really am afraid to look, despite B's very sensible observation that the time to look (and fix, and reprint, and drive to prof's house with replacement copy) is RIGHT NOW.
Also - we had drinks with friends and went to the theater ("The Miser" at Jeune Lune, highly recommended. Mature language) and then home for an after-dinner snack and now, it is to be hoped, BED. One of the neighbor-cats is sleeping in my dresser drawer - so CUTE!! If I didn't dislike cats so much I would definitely have to have some.
I have had a headache for the last 3 days, 24/7, and now that my paper is done, I don't have it anymore.
