I'm just, uh, just feeling kinda... truthsome right now. And, uh... life's just too damn short for ifs and maybes.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

You know you're not doing any favors for the Australian Tourism Board's work.

But the flocks of flying foxes (fruit bats) are incredibly prehistorically awesome. And rock wallabies! Wombats!Koalas!

Man, I love rock wallabies.

I have to duct tape my big toe. A couple nights ago, I noticed slices to the pad, as if I'd stepped on a razor or something. Not deep, not painful. But then, pushing off the wall in the pool, they sorta peeled and took out a chunk deep enough to to hurt (and potentially get worse.) I have NO IDEA how I did this. Broke some glass the other day, but I was careful cleaning it up. Other possibility is sharp tile in the pool?

Couple that with dumb random bruises I can't explain and my continued failure to make necessary phone calls, really sucking at adulting. (Today was so busy, I actually never has a free moment to make a call, but still.)

I'm an exhausted mess. I'm probably forgetting to do something important with regard to work or my upcoming trip with Lee. Thank god for the trip, though.

It was brought to my attention that I'm not the only one who noticed me getting thrown under a bus at the start of the week. Plus I've been getting about 4 hours of sleep a night due to meetings and trying to get a global summit planned. Not to mention I need to get more annual review stuff done before I leave. I will be going on this vacation with a vengeance!

Also I got a new camera that I need to learn how to use. But I'm not going to stress about that.

Sure, move the 8:30pm meeting to 9. Suuuure. Not like I don't have to get up at 5am tomorrow.

Cereal:

And the fire alarm went off while I was in my meeting for no reason that I can discern.

I'm going to put on my pajamas and drink now.

Yeah, I was gonna take you out for a drink but I thought I'd wait until after Bora Bora.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

It was back-to-school night at the middle school. Wow, what a difference between 6th and 7th grades.

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

I am so totally unready, and yet so very ready, I just can't even.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It was brought to my attention that I'm not the only one who noticed me getting thrown under a bus at the start of the week.

That's something, anyway. Here's hoping there is more sleep in your future!

In my job news, we're planning a lunch meeting with someone who requires "no red meat, no wheat, no gluten, no milk or milk products." It makes me so sad for that person! I mean, not that there aren't a lot of good things outside of those categories, but definitely my favorite things are all within them. And also, good thing this meeting is in Boston, because the last time they met with her, it was in a place where you aren't supposed to eat raw vegetables. At least we can give her chicken on a salad! (Not Caesar, though...)
