Hungry?

I have a new crutch. I am hooked on Snickers to get me through my night shifts. I have a supplier too, which is not good. I think mostly he is trying not to eat them himself, but in doing so he is passing them on to me with some regularity. I've had one each of the last two nights and I have two more in my bag just waiting for tonight. Not good. While eating my ration last night, I came across the following:
Nougatocity: A heightened yet fleeting state of accomplishment that makes you realize how unbelievably unmotivated you normally are.
I have no idea what nougatocity is, but the 'fleeting state of accomplishment' rings a bell. This is totally me. On the average day I am an incredibly unmotivated procrastinator. Every so often, however, I have these spurts of productivity. For a few hours, half a day, sometimes even a couple afternoons in a row, I can become very driven and motivated. I rampage my apartment on a cleaning frenzy. I spit out three or four blogs to post at a later date, I check a few items off my perpetual 'to do' list. And then I have an apartment messier than when I started, blogs half written and unedited, and a list slightly shorter but still hanging over my head. If only these Snickers could actually live up to their claims and fuel me enough for real motivation. Then the empty calories just might be worth it.
Hungry? Why wait? Tired? Why not?
