You're creeping me out, man
Sep. 12th, 2007 11:46 amSo today I had this dataconference that I had to coordinate between three cities and it's been freaking me out for months. I duly arranged for helpers in the two other cities and thought I had it under control, but I still dreamed about the damned thing all night long. Just before my alarm went off this morning, I dreamed that I had to rush my mother to the hospital and I'm calling all over creation to get people to pick up the meeting for me.
Like I would really do that if I actually had to rush mom to the hospital--but I'm sure I'd remember the meeting eventually. And it was a dream.
So I came into work and sent off checking in emails to everyone involved and I heard back from all but one person. I kept calling all over the office, but by that time it was lunch time on the East Coast and no one was at their desks. Finally, about a half hour before the meeting I was able to reach someone in that office. She informed me that my helper wasn't in the office that day because she had to rush her mother to the hospital.
I took a few seconds to be creeped out, but didn't really have the time because I had to make more frantic phone calls to line up a new helper. The meeting turned out okay, with just minor hitches.
And now I have time to really be creeped out.
