They don't let me out of my hole very often, or rather, I'm more likely to have meetings here in our office than elsewhere on campus. But today I needed to attend a meeting over at the senior administration building. It was really, really difficult to come back to my office afterward.
For the moment, at least, it is sunny, with temperatures in the mid-sixties. It is a gorgeous, glorious day, one tailor made for playing hooky. Unfortunately, I went to the meeting with a coworker, and thus couldn't simply detour to the parking lot and take off.
Like a dutiful employee, I came back to my office. But I must say, what little concentration I have is shot. This happens the first two or three nice Fridays in the spring (usually much earlier than the end of May; our weekends have been pretty gloomy this year). Truly, everyone would be better off if they just let me leave now...
...at least, that's my story.
So far, no one is buying it.
