I so don’t want to go to work today. This is more because I haven’t done anything the last couple days than not wanting to work, you know? Entropy. Also, it’s ridiculously beautiful out, and I’d rather go outside and play. This, however, is not an option, as I have people coming sometime this weekend and the line edits on PHOENIX are due three days earlier than they told me they were. Argh.

I have no willpower.
I have no willpower. At *all*. I was just going to watch two episode, but I accidentally put the 5th disc in without having watched the 4th. And the first episode that didn’t matter, but the second was all full of ‘previously on Gilmore Girls’ stuff that made no sense.
