Due tomorrow?

Do tomorrow.

Girlfriend's coming over later today. I've known since Saturday.

... I still have a lot of cleaning to do. But hey, I took out one of the trash bags yesterday. With my mighty powers of procrastination, I'm fairly confident that everything else will be taken out, swept, and tidied up within the 15 minutes between when I arrive home from work and when she gets here. It'll be fine!
