A quick paper update:

I just typed up 4 handwritten pages and am now at the top of page 15. I have been scared to set myself a deadline, because of how slowly I have been working, but I am now aiming at being done by Thursday pm. My professor has office hours starting at 5:30, and I plan to be there with paper in hand to take my scourging for tardiness like a man. So to speak.

Wish me luck!
