I think that's definitely a part of it, Kat. I'm even worse than I used to be about being independently DIY, whatever the It.
And this class, I really can't criticize it at all. She was very good (it was FranklinCovey,) it just... I *knew* that, next? Do I have to wait for everyone else to catch up?
I also now know why certain people are such a PITA on certain projects. They really get lost in the details and derail. I mean, the one who I always was ready to kill (to the point that I avoided her socially, even though we have the same friends)? She really had a hard time understanding the concept of a status-only/accountability mtg that could be short. She was aghast I run one 2x a week that runs under 10 minutes, at most 30 if a smaller group breaks out to triage an emergency issue.
Which explains why I wanted to kill her when I worked one project with her.
I'm glad you're not dying from a rogue clot, but I'm sorry you're a bruise magnet. It just seems so ridiculously unfair. Has K forgiven me for the rat poison comment yet?
