By all the Bels in all the Hels

I have not slept. I am on the first day of the first period of 2006. It's Monday morning.
I have just had almost an hour long meeting about venture capitalists and equity realisations. WTF indeed*
I do not want to see a two hour presentaion about databases this afternoon.

*think of it like this, why go do highway robbery when everywhere they go has valet?

Ah. thank you!
I normally do such things in irrelevant, long and dull meetings such as this, but I am so very tired I had not thought of it!
Woo!
Thank you!
Hmm, I wonder if they'll let me take in a blanket and pillows too...

You're welcome. I thought you might - it's something I try to do, when I get the option or am stuck in a meeting where I don't have to take notes/minutes. I find it's either keep busy or fall asleep. There's something about meetings that just makes me want to fall asleep.

I doubt the blanket and pillows will be allowed, but if you've got a good chair, that works.

When I was awake enough to take notes taking notes kept me awake. But there were times when there was no excuse to take any notes, and I tried to recite poetry instead, and then come up with pretentious phrasing instead, and then started to try and cost a bid and ... then I dozed off enough to drop my pensil case...

But at least you didn't doze off and start snoring... (or doze off practically next to Her Majesty's Special Representative to Sudan, as I have done.)
