Unless I’m very much mistaken, today was a Monday. It was a pretty typical Monday, in what promises to be a not entirely typical week. Several meetings and presentations, more than a couple holiday lunches or parties, and deadlines looming. I’m really feeling the end-of-the-year crunch at work more than in years past. It’s going to be work getting everything to a point where I feel confident in taking two weeks off for the holidays, but I’m really looking forward to those two weeks.
