Well it’s really my back after getting it stabbed before someone threw a whole bunch of us under the bus.

Accept responsibility for your goof. Seriously. Whether it impressed the one you clearly needed it to impress, well, who knows.

I love people who say, “Yeah I own that.”

I am feeling zero love right now.

Seriously, the missives blaming everyone but your own impatience, and telling everyone else to be cognizant of their own supposed failings, isn’t going to convince anyone else to step up and give up their nights and weekends.

I’ve been waiting years to say that.

When you have anywhere from one to three hours’ worth of meetings a day (filed under: a good day), is that part of your supposed “eight hours” or do you put in eight hours on top of that?

I mean, I assume eight hours on top of meetings.

Just asking as I hang up the phone only to pick it up again and two more times after that.

Time to have my Senate Democrat hearing and prepare for my own personal DeVos.

Bumped the call with the person I didn’t want to talk to till tomorrow. I can be insulted when I’m less psychotically busy, thanks.

But once again having to try to publish shit and be in a meeting, I accidentally sent live a mailing … set to arrive on Nov. 1 and not Feb. 1. Ask me how hard it is to reverse THAT process. Especially given that I have to ask Fric and Frac, who go home at 5 physically and at 10 a.m. mentally, for help.

That new year’s resolution when you say you are leaving by 7 every night and no later (OK most nights) and if you do leave at 6 then you can just log in for an hour later and still have a life balance …

Works GREAT but who’s doing the work you’re not doing when you’re out enjoying 12 minutes of daylight and hanging with your momma and kitty?

I got to thinking about that person I have to interview. I feel like a Senate Democrat. I can filibuster all I want to, but my own Betsy DeVos is going to be Edumucation Secretary. And I as the deputy administrator will be fighting to make spelling and grammar great again.
