A tough week.

After the rush of automotive purchase, and the trepidation of the sheer mass of financial commitment involved, I realized that there was something rather important I was to present this week at work.

Woops!

Too late, I began foraging around, trying to get my information together and in a presentable form. It didn't work. By late Thursday morning (meeting time), I had rather a shoddy effort cobbled together in MS Powerpoint.

Semi-fortunately, a helpful department manager deflected the my anticipated humiliation of looking (well-deservedly) like an incompetent boob by putting off my presentation. I say "semi-fortunate" because now I have my boss' boss (the department manager in question) fully aware that I dropped the ball so utterly.

Ah well, life goes on. The utter panic of yesterday has faded with the time and effort I have finally put into the presentation. When I make it on Monday, I might not even get laughed out of the room!

And anyway, who cares?!! That's Monday - a whole weekend from now! And now I think I need to forget about work and go home to play.

...and perhaps have a beer.
