Here comes the rush. Today's the ever-loving deadline, 2 o'clock. It's pissing me the heck off that I can't finish my story until I finish that interview, which is at two. I hope the editors and whatnot don't give me thirty lashes for being a couple hours late. I mean, it's only due to the designer NEXT TUESDAY. I mean, I just heard somebody say something about my story not having those interviews included until the second draft. That's really stupid, in my humble opinion. I can get those interviews at 2, then come right back and write the stuff up, and have a complete, finished product. It's really not that complicated. Yes, I understand the whole DEADLINE concept. I GET that I need to have it in by or before 2. But this is crucial to my story. It's my lede, my third paragraph, and the additional information I need to wrap up the article, and these interviews are scheduled for the EXACT deadline.

So yeah, I'm pretty much stressed out of my mind, because at the same time, there's nothing I have that I can add to my story, and I need to fake it for 6-odd hours.
