Oh dear, Jesse.
My boss keeps sounding really scattered and not good in meetings, and I can tell that it is irritating boss's boss. I don't know how to stop it. She just talks so fast and doesn't actually finish her sentences, and her boss is really, really, a step-by-step kind of person. And she just completely skips around on the agenda that I make. When I was trying to help her out by explaining what she meant was when she thought I was trying to take her job.
Conference call approaching three hours. Kill me now.

Wow, I hate to say it but I think you're right. Death is the only viable option.
Wait, it's been going on for three hours?! I read it as coming up in three hours. Good god. It's only ... nine o'clock where you are!
I'm pretty sure that a 6am to 9am conference call would be a leading cause of workplace death, if more jobs were crazy enough to have them.
When we were in the throes of hammering out our partnership with Astellas last year, I was on conference calls regularly that began at 2AM and ended at 4AM. As weird as that was, it's stuff like that that allows me to basically create my own work hours. My boss is the same way. One of the reasons I love my job so much (and am extremely hesitant about ever changing companies) is that I have no regular hours. I can get into the office at 8 or Noon or 2 and it doesn't matter (unless I have meetings, for which I am always the first one in the room). But the flip side is that I am available 24/7. It works for me. I am thankful that the respect goes both ways.
Leif has decided that's he's an Egyptologist and has started to study ancient Egypt. He also decided his educational plan. He's going to learn everything now so he can coast through high school and college.
Leif is a planner! And has he been to the King Tut exhibit?

Occasionally we have them.
Stupid Earth, what with it being round and all.
And has he been to the King Tut exhibit?
Has he heard that Steve Martin song?
It's very informative, as long as you don't care about accuracy.
