long night ahead

You know, for a class I don't care about, this essay is causing me an inordinate amount of difficulty. Possibly because I'm straining so hard to write something that even vaguely interests me that I'm having trouble actually proving my thesis. Also, it's Bio. Core Bio. I'm practically the only senior in the course. So I know, logically, that I'm a better writer than most of the other people here simply on the basis of having a lot more experience writing papers. So I'm really just tripping myself up right now. But I have trouble focusing on schoolwork even when it's a subject I'm actually interested in, and biology just isn't my thing. Argh. Also, I just realized that there's a logical fallacy in my thesis -- not that my premise itself is wrong, but the paper I'm basing my thesis on doesn't directly address an important aspect of my thesis, and just...argh. This class is NOT worth the amount of brain cells I'm wasting on it tonight.

And I have a 9am design meeting for Carthaginians (the play what I'm directing next quarter), so there's really no way I'll be getting enough sleep tonight, what with this stupid bio paper and all. Bleh.

Oh, and is there no one on my f-list still even remotely involved in the HP fandom? Drat. That would explain my difficulty finding a beta. Well, I'll deal with that tomorrow. By which I mean post the fic unbetaed. Um.
