the tub is still disgusting

I'm typing this on Dave's computer in the old apartment. Dave and Mike are playing House of the Dead 2, and there's about three stacks of quizzes that I was supposed to grade this weekend sitting on the table, but I need to sit and think about how good I feel right now: free Whoppers, Quote of the Days, reading the script, and making the boys brownies.

I know that tomorrow I will curse myself for procrastinating, yet again, on something job related. I know that my students will not appreciate the lack of concern I am exercising for their grades and their quizzes. I know that tomorrow, I will feel ill and tired.

But I know that right NOW, I am content eating burnt brownies and chain smoking Marlboro Ultralights with my boys. THAT is what keeps me going during the week, and THAT is what I will do tonight.
