There's a reason they call it PRO-crastination.

This is not a game for amateurs, after all. But since my first attempt at starting my paper resulted in some potentially amusing incoherent ranting instead, I thought I'd post for posterity.

Huzzah for Courier New!

-- although I think I like it for different reasons than you do. In the meantime, try to take advantage of Times New Roman -- use more words with w's in them, like walrus or weather. Walrus loses points for the l, of course, but should be net positive all told.

I'm actually writing this in Courier New right now! Good for Firefox and LJ. Hooray for fixed-width fonts!

ha!

Very clever. And I agree, all social-science writing is below par. I hope the paper got done... I remember the panic you inflicted upon me when you came back from London for Christmas and should have been relishing the fact that school was over but instead you were procrastinating on a PAPER that your teacher mercifully let you turn in who knows how late.
And then the time when you finished college; that is, finished minus a PAPER that you had to write that you just kept putting off.
Oh, you stress me out. But they bring back fond memories of my relief when you finally DID, in fact, get them done. :)
