Am avoiding the mirror, bc mid-exams/ sleep-deprived haggard is not my best look.

Also, apartment is in state of TOTAL FILTH. 

However, my standard for filth = many people's standard for "reasonably neat."  I don't even have dishes piled up.  A good vacuuming and wipe down of the bathroom sink and organization of some paper piles is all I need - is it wrong that having the time to accomplish these tasks is what I'm most looking forward to?

Indicia of insanity: for reasons I am currently unable to ascertain, I have spent the past week sleeping only on my 54-inch loveseat.  I am 70 inches tall.  The only possible explanation is that I started the night before my first exam and have since been afraid to break routine.

I can't believe this is the last time I'm going through all of this ever!  Unless the bar counts.  Maybe it should count, times a lot, since it's basically this drawn out over two and a half months, three days of testing, and a much greater sense of looming failure.

[I can't WAIT!]

You suck. Also - oh how you must love coming to my house. :)

Good luck with that which remains.

Hey now. I make allowances for the fact that you have children. It's just one more reason why I'm never having any.

Your "standard of filth" could be on par with one of my best friends', who is so obsessive-compulsive that she vacuums four times a day. One time, when she was sick, she told a friend of hers on the phone that her house was "a wreck." "Let me guess," he said, "you haven't vacuumed today, and there's one dish sitting in the sink?" "EXACTLY!!!"

She sounds like an even more anal version of me - but, yes, a version nonetheless. For me, it would be when I haven't vacuumed in three days, and there are two dishes in the sink. ;)

Well, in case you feel like checking her out, she's [livejournal.com profile] spc_bink. May not be your type of person, but could also be another distraction from your studying... ;)
