Why do we get to decide?
Because we're awesome?
I dunno.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Much Ado About Nothing will be playing at the Wisconsin Film Festival this year. I really hope I can get to Madison for that.

So I'm back in my office and I have no job offer yet. Bah.
And tomorrow I have to take the afternoon off to take my mother to the doctor, and Friday morning I'm taking my dad to the doctor. Woot?

I think I'll go. Madison is only 2 1/2 hours away from me. Unfortunately MAAN is playing on a Thursday. Maybe I'll drive from Madison to work at Highland Park Friday morning.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
This cold is not backing down. I feel awful. But in that "this ain't nothing" way. Like, if I begged off now, Friday would have me whimpering like a small child denied chocolate. This is just a starter cold, and I'm being a wuss because I'm not used to it, and because I'm scared it will get worse. But I absolutely can't lead any meetings today.
I'm still trying to navigate being borrowed. This director is setting up things he wants me to take over, but I'm not his--so how is that going to work? I'm assuming it's all flattering (he was very complimentary about the compulsive edits I made to his slide deck--it might be the first time in my career anyone's ever thanked me for not being able to just read) but I'm not sure what's sustainable, or what my actual manager is expecting to happen in the long run.
There are things in this group I have to do, because no one either knows how or is willing to get off their ass and try shit. Like, if you come up with a list of troubleshooting problem-isolating steps that should be performed on the test systems, DON'T BOUNCE THAT BACK TO THE USERS. Do it yourself, system admin/developer. You are misinterpreting the hierarchy here.
