When I was an undergrad I would always, always find urgent housecleaning tasks to do when I had urgent school deadlines. Complicated paper due tomorrow? Laundry calls! Midterm coming up? Better mop. It hasn't been done since last finals week, after all. (Any partners in procrastination out there?)
I am on a tear today. The hampers are empty; the bathmats and diapers have been washed as well. I scoured the stovetop, and then vacuumed and mopped and started cleaning windows. I am casting longing looks at my giant mending pile.
Final tomorrow? What final tomorrow?
