That’s right - I’ve been in grad school all of a week tomorrow, and there’s a paper due tomorrow. There’s one for another class due the next week, and two due the week after.
It’s done (except for one cite I have to check at the library before class tomorrow - and class isn’t until 5). You know what? It was kind of fun to be writing a paper again. Am I sick or what?
You’re sick.

Draft, redraft, redraft.
I always taught my students that there’s no such thing as a perfect paper; there’s only the best paper you can make before the deadline.
…or you can play a lot of Nintendo and write something half-assed. Whatever works.
