Excuse for my professor
I had one of those insane holiday-time days yesterday, the kind where you end up being awake for 20 hours straight and then wake up the next morning completely unable to function or comprehend anything which is not good since you need to write a paper for your Organization Behavior class and damn, that shit is boring.Up at 7:30, away to my crazy ass workout class (it was apparently Butt Day, since we did squats and lunges and then more lunges and more squats and also hey, do a million bicep and tricep exercises while you're at it and ow). And then home for a fast shower and away again to take pictures of babies and kids and families and drink coffee and gossip and yay Cranberry Bliss Bar! After that it was time for the scrapbooking and cookie exchange and more baby holding and then woo, party time! Make up and party outfit and seeing people who hadn't seen me in almost three years which meant getting to go through the whole "Wow, look at you/I barely recognized you/you look great/how'd you do it?" conversations that have been a distant memory for the past 6 months. But there was wine and good nibbles and oh, the peanut butter/Ritz cracker/white chocolate sandwich cookie thingies that I haven't had since college. And after that there were pomegranate-pear martinis and an hour of reminiscing with an old friend about back when we were crazy drunk college kids, and a husband who was begging to go home because all of a sudden it was very early on Sunday morning.
And that is why I did not write my paper today. Instead, I took a nap. Such is my life. Guess I know what I'm doing tomorrow!

I think the ability to function without sleep vanishes at about age 20. I swear I remember being perfectly capable (or at least as capable as ever) on two hours sleep as an undergrad, but I sure can't do that now. Won't even try, because it always ends bad.
