so im driving in neveda a few months ago. its around 1am, and ive been up and driving since 7am. im exhausted, and my car is almost out of gas. almost as in im talking to my car because ive seen an exit sign and i know im only a couple miles away from a gas station, but the car is so low on fuel that im only going 40mph on the highway in a desperate tired effort to drive fast enough to get me to a gas station, but slow enough that im not burning through fuel as fast as i can. over and over i tell my car that were almost there, and that i just need her to take me a couple more miles before i can fill up and we can both rest for the night.
mentally and physically, im in that exact same position now. i have one last final to take on monday. ive had the last two days to study, and ive all day sunday. except the last two days ive been driving real slow, trying to coax myself to the place and time where i can rest for a while and cool off and regenerate. monday's exam isnt going to be easy. in fact, i think its going to be the hardest of my finals. except that im so tired, so drained from more than four months of school and two weeks of studying and three finals that i just cant seem to drive myself those last couple of miles. i know exactly where ill be after that last stretch. ive got a plane ticket to michigan state and three weeks off where i dont have to think about law school.
i just need to find a way to push myself, or find something that can tap my bumper and push me into the gas station.
night.
