I need to write 500 words related to something I really don't give a rat's rear end about, by the end of today. I need to write, I'm not too sure on this one, as I'd been meaning to check for a couple of weeks now, but somewhere around 1500 to 2000 words about something I don't even know yet by the end of tomorrow. Apparently I also need to demonstrate that I went to the trouble of consulting other people's words about the unknown subject as well.

 

All I can think about, really, is riding my brand new bicycle, which I, co-incidentally, still know nothing about. It is kind of worrying. I told my boss at work, and work is a bicycle shop, that I wanted a new road bike, he smiled and said ok. That was the end of the conversation. I not sure whether I should be worrying about the fact that my boss knows me so well that he wil find exactly what I want without asking a single question, or that he's going to be guided by completely false assumptions that will result in a bicycle I can barely stand to look at, much less ride.

 

At any rate. This latest bout of procrastination, one with me zooming along on my ephereal bicycle, is proving to be rather stubborn. I guess part of it is that there is more or less an endless stream of work. After I'm done with all of these words, my other three subjects will demand that I write more words before some arbitrary deadline. So there is very little motivation to write the current set of words. Especially since I'd just written a lot of words merely last weekend.

 

Will the nightmare never end?
