A day in the life of the fanfic author...

Up in the morning, about a quarter to eight,
The shuttle's in fifteen minutes, I'm going to be late.
Pants, shirt, shoes, and coat,
Twenty minutes later, I missed the boat.

Half the class is over, as I walked in,
And the teacher stares at me like it's a mortal sin.
Sit down, take notes, try to stay awake,
If college life is "fun", this takes the cake.

Four classes later, I've run out of steam,
but rest and sleep are yet only a dream.
Go to work!  Pay the rent!  I have too many bills.
If this keeps up much longer, I'll be on the pills.

Late that night, the last of the homework squirreled away,
At last, I patter at my fanfic, and pray
Maybe tomorrow, or next week, I'll finish this part,
If sleep deprivation doesn't get me, it'll be my heart!


Happy um...typing, all.  ^_^
