We had another meeting this morning about which notebooks to buy for our office. I think this is the sixth meeting about notebooks. I was waiting for Michael Scott and Dwight to show up.

We should trade meetings one day just to see if it makes a difference.

That sounds horrible, Bulldog.

I've actually had meetings to prepare for other meetings. I wanted to shoot myself.

Oh we have those meetings to prepare for other meetings, I've been to meetings to plan when to have meetings, and I've been to meetings to review past meetings. I have never been to a meeting to review a past meeting that was a meeting to plan a meeting, but I'll bet I see that before I end my career.

I just sent that pic above to my group. That's perfect.

My meetings are mostly conference calls. The call-in number was down this morning. I went back to bed for an hour. Raised my productivity.

Tomorrow my meeting schedule is:

9:00 - 10:00
10:00 - 11:00
11:30 - 12:30
12:30 - 1:30
2:00 - 3:00

There is also a webinar I signed up for at noon on my calendar, which I won't be making. That's ridiculous. 12:30 supposedly has pizza coming, and it [expletive] better or I'm not staying.

I wouldn't dread meetings so much if you were in them; I'd probably be irrationally excited, even if you weren't wearing your holey underwear.
