Happy Birthday, Tom!
Anya, the Shopkeepers of America called. They wanted me to tell you that 'please go' just got replaced with 'have a nice day.'

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Happy birthday, Tom!
brenda is a super-fantastic rock star! Every word they said is true.
(Aside: Did your title change and are you no longer handling proposal management? I was on LinkedIn for work, and it asked me to endorse you, which I heartily did!)

Now I'm handling both BD and Marketing. For Central US, Canada and Latin America. Few more people on my team, lots of new stuff on my plate. Crazytimes.

Yay Brenda!! Happy Scola!
Today is a work holiday so I did not set an alarm. I woke up around 7 but went back to sleep u til about 930. Now I'm tired in that "I slept too long" way that makes me want to just get back in bed and sleep more to be contrary.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I'm gonna see if my boss will let me leave early. Maybe pointing out that all our clients have left for the day will convince him to let me leave.
Too bad he knows I'm an atheist--otherwise I could claim to be all sad that Jesus had died so I could leave early.

Crazytimes.
Hah! It does seem like it. (Says the woman who handles the entire country for her company, which isn't going as well as I would like, but that's another story for another day, because I'm not going to rain on brenda's parade.)

Brenda, great email! Acknowledgement for the work we do is too often in short supply. Glad you are being see and recognized.

Ahhh! Came downstairs, made breakfast, settled in on the couch to catch up on my tivo'd shows...and my tivo seems to be broken! Nooooo! Had to pull the power plug and am waiting 10 minutes but am not hopeful...
