What to do?

Here I am...I'm still here, but I've hit a big time writer's block. It's called procrastination. For some reason I think that I need a completely written paper in my head before I begin writing it. I am using this blog to help me get over that, so I hope you'll forgive me for my rambling. I've allowed the assignments to pile up and I need to really push to get some done, because I've started new courses and for some odd reason they all have writing assignments too! (That was sarcasm, which I've never figured out how to properly convey in the writing of a blog) I have to keep in mind the line that one of my profs gave us: "Graduate school is more about persistence than intelligence." I must persist! For the very brief time that J.R.R. Tolkien drove a car he would just fly into traffic with a cry something like: "Charge ahead and they'll make way!" His family must have been relieved when he gave up driving due to the way the construction of roads was destroying the English countryside. I need to charge ahead!
