You told yourself you'd start the essay at nine. It is now ten past midnight, you have alphabetised your spice rack, and you have written the title. In bold. You'd like it noted that you're basically halfway there.

Your crush replies "haha" to your paragraph-long message. You read it eleven times, tried to detect the tone, and showed it to a friend, who said "it's fine". You are still not fine. You have, however, only checked it twice since.
