Doing anything but what needs to be done

I know it’s due at midnight but it’s not any fun

Sure I could work now, but what is the rush?

There’s lots of time left, so I think if I just

Relax a few hours, my brain will thank me

A fresh start will happen at 7:30

Come to think of it, it won’t take too much time

This project could easily be started at 9

If I go out right now I could shop for an hour

Or maybe even 2 if tonight I don’t shower

Now I’ve thought up a plan and I’ll put it in action…
