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.
I would be there right now.

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ugh. I guess calling into the meeting, screeching "NO-MEETING FRIDAY", and logging off would be unprofessional, wouldn't it?
The problem is that it's just No-Meeting Friday in my unit, and most of the meetings are with other units. And one I scheduled myself. But one is really egregious!
AAAAAUGH A SECOND MEETING FOR TOMORROW NOOOOO.
Nooooooo!!

Apparently if you're enough of a power nerd, there is nothing that cannot be flowcharted.

Or yell "smoke bomb!" and run away. (Actual smoke bomb optional, as seen here: [link] )

Seems foolproof, honestly.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I feel like working some glitter in somehow might help, but it’s probably not necessary
