Have you squeezed every drop out of your lemon?

I did the St. Patrick's Day Hustle yesterday, and it still isn't over yet.  Here's how it went:

Picked up oldest child from a theater set build at 12:30 AM.  Back home to sleep for 3 1/2 hours.  Got up at 4:15 AM to go in to work.  Returned just before 12 Noon and filed paperwork.  Went back to bed to sleep for another 2 or 3 hours.  At 5 PM went to work the St. Patrick's Day bash at Floyd's Music Store.  Was thankful that I brought earplugs.  Bash ended at 2 AM.  Drank a Red Bull.  Helped cleanup until 5 AM then went home.  Peeled off filthy clothes, took a shower.  Stayed up and filed paperwork.  Bid family goodbye (wife took kids to school at 7 AM).  Went to bed.  Got back up at Noon.  Following up on possible concert, demo and media gigs, one of which starts tonight.  Will run some errands...

So tell me...where do ten pages of writing fit in that picture?  Since yesterday was a bust,  I am behind.  But I'll find time.  I'm going to squeeze this figurative lemon rind until I get the last bit of juice.  Then I am going to figuratively chew it up.  In real life, although they are bitter, even lemon rinds have Vitamin C.

Have you squeezed every drop out of your lemon?
