Atropa, I feel like unless you can non-metaphorically explode into a swarm of bats, it wouldn't have the necessary impact.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Bold of you to assume she can't.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I’m picturing WWDITS style “No meeting Friday! Bat!” and wondering whether that could defeat Colin Robinson. Perhaps temporarily.

We do not pretend to have No Meeting Fridays anymore, but I’ve only got the one tomorrow. And maybe a call with Sales. Or 2. But those aren’t, y’know, on my calendar, taunting me.

Dammit, a 10:30am meeting for tomorrow just hit my inbox, and I can't Bat out of it. I'm not so evil that I'll abandon my boss to deal with the release notes review on his own.

We got a message from the higher ups that we should try to avoid having meetings next Weds., rescheduling existing ones if needed. I think they figure everyone would be watching the news in another window anyway, so they might as well just roll with it.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I mean, if we go by the coup > impeachment > ??????? timeline, Wednesdays are honestly a little cursed. I wouldn't want to be making any major business decisions.

I now need to figure out how to get out of a meeting by yelling "Bat!" and disappearing.

I scheduled the day off. Between that and it being the 10th anniversary of Mom's death, I know my attention for work will be minimal.
AAAAAUGH A SECOND MEETING FOR TOMORROW NOOOOO.
