My utter apologies to all. My world has been dominated by a hot mess of fiscal woes, commission seating and budget production. In other words, since New Years Day, my job has swallowed me whole and spat out a less interesting, creative and available shadow of myself.
A day in the life of this utterly lame Blogger:
6:00am Alarm: Proceed to engage in a three slam minimum of my fist with the snooze button.
7:00am Gym: Attempt to avoid the crazy lady that has decided that I am the recipient of her opinions regarding Sarah Palin’s awesomeness, the Mannings’ superiority on the football field and any other blanket statement with which I am certain to disagree and/or her loudly voiced disdain of me for not engaging her in her craziness. Jack ipod volume level as necessary.
8:30am Work. Answer 35 red-exclamation-point-marked emails that have infested my inbox in the past 12 hours.
8:55am Work. Briefly wonder what people send such emails at 2am. Assert that I am not impressed by their dedication to their work, rather totally unimpressed with their inability to properly time manage.
9:00am-1:30pm Work. CRISIS. Small victory. CRISIS CRISIS CRISIS.
1:30pm-2:00pm Work. Meet with one of many individuals/advocates/groups that believe that “Budget cuts are good. The fiscal climate is bad. Budget cuts are good…for everyone but me.”
2:00pm-5:00pm Work. CRISIS, chase down boss, make necessary adjustments. CRISIS.
5:00pm-7:30pm Work. Get work done that would have been handled during the work days were it not for multiple crises.
7:30pm-8:30pm Home. Drown about 2.5 glasses of wine and watch an episode of either the West Wing or Gossip Girl- the television juxtaposition that best reflects the duality of my two chief sources of news: The New York Times and US Weekly.
8:30pm Bed.
I’ll be back soon, homies, and I’ll no longer be restricted to talk about any of the aforementioned crises. Until then…

thanks for your post - i was getting a bit worried. good luck with the work. i know you will do great things!
Next week wear a pair of rimless glasses to the gym and tell the Sara Palin lovin crazy lady --
"I can see Revere from my appartment" !
Therefore, I must know everything there is to know about Pauls famous ride.
You Betcha !!
When in doubt just think to yourself "What Would Josh Lymon Do". That should help.
Also I would like to applaud your commitment to both the gym and the wine during these grueling days!!
Hope it calms down soon. I mean, I listened to that Obama guy today and he says that we (that means you too) are up to these challenges! Yes you can, Kelly.
