The Brits are a smart bunch. They work really hard during the day so they can party at night and have the satisfaction of accomplishing things, being productive and rewarding these accomplishments with a pint or two (or 12!).
The Americans are a strange bunch. They do nothing during the day so they can party at night and have no satisfaction of accomplishing much of anything really. Their drinking is not so much of a reward as it is a tool of procrastination.
Why can't we learn?
I have been attempting to become British in this sense: I wake up early so that I can get stuff done throughout the day and then reward myself with a pint. The problem is that I don't get much done until about 2am when I kick ass(!) or fall asleep (remember that sleep at night is always an accomplishment-my mother taught me that).
Today my friend is not allowing me to eat supper until I have something written on the 8-10 page paper that is due tomorrow. Thus far, I got nothin'...and it's getting damn close to "dindin" time. Where is the motivation? My goodness! If anyone finds it, please please return it to me...I'm desperate! Thanks.
