and save it for winter, when a sunny afternoon is cold enough to freeze the balls off a brass monkey.
Sorry I don't seem to have much to say during the week and I just want to hide in a dorky comic. Work is kind of wearing me out. In the weeds isn't the half of it, I'm up the creek without a paddle, totally at sea, and I'm not sure I'm even keeping my head above water. Can you think of any other boat related phrases? Because my Dad named me after a boat he said always rode out the worst weather. :) I was headed out to a medical appointment yesterday, a little late and way too caffeinated, and the not-boss got in my way asking me questions about where we were on this and that and why I hadn't done something else over the weekend, and I told him it was because there hadn't been anyone here who needed that training on Sunday and hadn't he had me doing fifteen other things?
"I'm doing my best, but there's only one of me! Only one!"
"You got that right," he said. But he got out of my way.
Today I said I was sorry if I'd seemed a bit snappish, but he brushed it off. I think we're on the same page about all this. I'm getting stuff done, it's just that there's so much. He says he's reminded the Big Guy that another person at my level was supposed to have been hired months ago and that it's ridiculous to expect me to do everything alone.
