Yeah, caffeine-fueled all-nighters are not my idea of being in "crunch time". That's just Bad Planning.

When I think of giving myself short deadlines, I'm thinking about "oh gosh, can I really get this done in 1 or 2 eight-hour long days?" While also getting a full night's sleep, walking the dog, making and eating food, etc.

So it is a sustainably tight schedule that I did keep up for years. (And, in fact, am doing right this moment... I have two big proposals due tomorrow, and a full day's work to get them done. So I'm pretty much right on schedule to have a good, productive, busy, and focused day! :-)
