Well, today is better, if not different than yesterday. I'm coming to grips with my decision and have a couple of possibilities in the works. While that's all good and fine, life goes on.
I will be out of the office for 1/2 the day. A few weeks ago Bill scheduled to have a surgery and I agreed to take time off to drive him home and keep an eye on him post surgery. Despite how things are between us I am going to keep my word. I do have to say though that if I were him I'd be rethinking my timing. Pulling a world class fight mere days before depending on said person to care for you when you are not in good shape could be suicidal. ;) But then, social skills are not his forte.
On the same day (today) my mini-boss scheduled a very important meeting that involves people from all over the country. They will video conference some people in, others flew in for the meeting and some are already here at this office. For about a week I've resembled a many armed goddess shuttling emails, phone calls and mail to and from these executives. Arranged flights, hotel and coordinated with the caterer for lunch. So this morning I've been running around shuttling visiting execs to offices, arranging for pass keys, introducing one person to another, confirming lunch arrangements and keeping my coworker who agreed to "babysit" the executives this afternoon in the loop.
In anticipation for all this activity I had a double esspresso on a nearly empty stomach when I got in. Silly, silly unique. Even with the banana that was supposed to be my breakfast that caffiene is surging through my veins. I swear I can see through walls and my hands are so shaky I could mix paint cans with them. The crash is going to be spectacular. Let's just hope it isn't until much later today. I think I can extend the buzz if I chug a Red Bull or something at lunch.
So today is my day of excesses. Excess relationship, excess responsibility, excess work, excess people to track and excess caffiene.
