Bad day at work.
Someone just told me he can't/won't contribute a book chapter that was due in July. Now I will probably have to write it myself under time pressure.
I also seem to have gotten myself into a fight with very put-upon female colleague over an office space for employees. She is the last person whose toes I want to step on and this the last thing I want to beef over, but here we are and my guy is going to be very unhappy if, or, rather, when, I back down. The big boss, who can settle this with a wave of his hand is in India or the UAE or someplace.
I am going to go lift weights for lunch.
