Oh, ugh, Allyson. Between that and the no-AC, I can't imagine not getting stressed out.
I said I'm sorry. I've made mistakes, but fear was never one of them.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
That sounds completely horrible, Allyson. If the bosses are thinking that it'll change when things fall apart, and the secretaries are working very hard to hold it together, it won't change until the secretaries fall apart. It would suck if you had to go find a new job because of this stress.

Sounds like the workflow is really broken. Just tell me that your system is based on SAP and that'd be my nightmare all over.
Today, so far I've been to two grocery stores, brought 4 bags of groceries home, watched a special about animals before the dinosaurs (a millipede ten feet long? ), went to yoga, and now I'm having a little lunch. Still ahead in the day is a dear friend's wedding, so I'll get some yard work in, then shower and get ready for that!

I'm watching that Before the Dinosaurs special right now, as I procrastinate. I have a messy house and zero motivation.

Theodosia's day is making me tired, even though she is 3 hours ahead. I did accomplish the first big thing on my to-do list, but that's about it.

That's really unfortunate.
Reminds me of when I had a boss where, after I'd send him an email that needed a documented response, I'd have to walk down to his office "Hi. I just sent you an email you need to respond to quickly." "Oh, I was supposed to reply?" And I'd stand there as he fluttered and darted to the computer and replied. He asked me to do this. Rather defeated one of the advantages of email.
I need to go out. Anything is better than sitting here watching the temp go up indoors (no, the a/c is not working well at all. A case where I hate being right.)

Aw...did I get the 'Bot in trouble? I guess being consoling in the way Roxie is and offering you a fast...oh, never mind, but I'm guessing that won't help at all.

urgh, Allyson, that sucks. There's nothing worse that systems that only hinder the people it should help.
I just spent a large part of my day gardening. In a skirt. I'm off to have my second shower of the day.
