now is your chance to point a gun at me
...because I am soooooo loaded!
Notes from my day:
Snag in walking-to-work routine: I push the clock and wind up running out the door with wet hair and no print-out of my lecture notes, thereby making myself almost late for class.
Remedy: it's obvious, but not in character. Give myself more time in the morning. Yeah, sure.
Snag in dealing with an afternoon of chairing university hearings: need lotsa coffee to keep alert.
Remedy: get a large latte before hearings.
Snag in getting large latte before hearings: have no cash on hand.
Remedy: go to UBS ATM and get cash.
Snag in getting cash while in a hurry to get coffee to make it to the hearings on time: I press too many zeros on the ATM machine. I should not have shouted out for the world to hear: hey, I pressed too many zeros on the ATM machine! Tip: no, there seems to be no limit to the thousands you can pick up at the UBS ATM machine.
Remedy: thank God there's overdraft protection.
The day is young, I am on break from hearings and have a full night of house-packing ahead, before tomorrow's movers and the garage sale. Your stealing money from me at this second is the least of my problems. Go ahead, point a gun, take the cash. Just don't pull the trigger. I may implode anyway.

Your today sounds a lot like my tomorrow -- running from one meeting/class/event to another with every second of the day accounted for and no time for disruptive snags. Really not time to even sit and catch one's breath.
ReplyDeleteTomorrow I drop Ethan at school at 8:30 am, have breakfast with Prof. M.D. who will be on campus for a bankruptcy conference, teach an 11 am class, attend a noon presentation by the dean, host an 8th floor back to school block party immediately after, pick up Ethan at school at 3 pm, race to hair salon for 3:30 appointment, and then host a 6:30 pm dinner party at my house. I may be serving pizza at that dinner party!
