I knew this thing would come in handy

I am supposed to be writing a paper. Clearly, I am not writing said paper right now. Instead I (1) just checked my email, (2) checked websites for each band I currently am following, (3) got up and walked into the kitchen where I thoroughly examined my cupboard and decided against eating more (I've already had dinner and 2 snacks), (4) checked everyone's away message on AIM, (5) checked my email again (got one this time too!), (6) got up and wandered around my kitchen for a couple minutes again and (7) decided to post something.

So I am being very productive...

It is ok, the paper is 2/5 complete. It is due at 1:00 tomorrow afternoon and I don't have class until 11.

Plus, the exam I have tomorrow evening is almost entirely studied for, due to the fact that I managed to again confuse my dates.

So last Saturday (game day!), I somehow managed to convince myself it was Sunday. I got up and did some pre-game "tailgating" at someone's house, went to the game, took a nap and woke up thinkingit was Sunday. I proceeded to freak out because I hadn't met with my ProComm group about the proposal due Monday and still had TONS of homework to do. I couldn't figure out how I had been so irresponsible as to completely shirk my homework until 9 pm on Sunday and I couldn't figure out how I'd forgotten to MEET with a group.

So I sent a panicky email to my group members, and went to work on my other homework. 3 hours later, it's 12:00 and I have to be up at 5:00am so I head for bed. I set my alarm, wash my face, crawl in bed and insomnia hits. About 30 minutes later I get to thinking... and I don't remember having experienced a "Saturday" night at all... so I ask Ericka-- "is today saturday?"
Ericka: "yes..."

How does such a thing happen?

and more pathetic... how does it happen TWICE?

This afternoon, I get off work, walk home and immediately start studying for Finance because I managed to convince myself it was Thursday. So I freak out AGAIN, wondering how I can feel so rushed. Then it hits me... I was stressed about studying, taking the exam and still managing to write this paper-- but the paper was due on THURSDAY... so if it was due tomorrow... that meant today had to be--wednesday.

Honestly, is confusion about the day of the week a symptom of something? because it's happening to me with increasing frequency...

anyway, I oughta get back to that paper. If I can get at least 7/10 of it done tonight, I'll be golden for tomorrow morning.
