This satire at The Onion was dead on: Man Stays Up All Night
Procrastinating. I definitely do my best work when I should be doing something else. I have this almost pathological inability to focus on things that I need to work on when I need to work on them. I can sit there and start then I hit the wall and I’ll start doing almost anything to put it off, cleaning, organizing, starting new projects. I’m sure my website started this way. I stayed up on night freaking out about the website I built for my job interview. It seems like everything comes together in the last few hours before something is due. Back in college, I would do twenty page papers the day before they were do. Yes, it’s ridiculous and not helpful.
