Jan. 12th, 2012 03:32 pmMy entire department is a hot, hot mess right now.
Everyone's sick, so there are echoing coughs and rolling sniffles. Occasionally it sounds like we're engaging in actual communication, some kind of stuffed-nose Morse code.
But we're all here, because either we're working on last-minute research for our fundraisers or we're working on the budget, which I have reduced from two tabloid-sized pages full of numbers to a simple two-colour worksheet on a letter-sized piece of paper. Because I am awesome. I'm not sure why I'm not conquering the world except that I wouldn't know what to do with it afterward.
We're not hugely talkative at the best of times, but right now it's eerie. I've just about lost my voice, my podmates both look like they've been weeping, and my candy basket is filled with cough drops.
In half an hour I get to go home and be a hot mess at home! With Thai food! It will be awesome.
