Deadlines....yikes!


HerNameIsBuffy

Okay, so you see there was this deadline.  Which is fine.  Deadlines don't scare me.  I love deadlines.  I issue deadlines.  Deadlines and me are like this (picture my fingers crossed - super close.)

But this deadline isn't like other deadlines.  It's a trickster.  See the paperwork for the deadline all said 02/22/2016.  All the emails I've about it referenced 02/22/2016.  But some how my head interpreted that as 02/24/2016...and that was the part of my brain that put it in my calendar...soooooo...

Either I made a mistake or....this deadline was really issued by Voldemort and he had one of his death eaters do that memory thing on me where he implanted the wrong date in my head.  

Totally Voldemort.  

So why am I sitting here with the grin of panic plastered on my face instead of kicking deadline ass?  Because fight, flight, or freeze are the proper evolutionary responses to this and I can neither punch my deadline in the face or run away from the inside of my head (or Voldemort...which is who is totally to blame.)

  I'm going, I'm going...here are some memes...

(Send me happy thoughts and wishes of luck people and tell me everything is going to be okay or Tinkerbell dies.  And in this instance Tinkerbell = me.  Except I'm taller.  And wearing pants.)

It's okay though, totally have a plan.  I'm going to get to work and...

Then if I start to panic I'll do this...

(although I will probably use my own name...personal touch and all.)

And if I need to submit a request for an extension I'll send this with it...which is super professional.

I can't top the two memes above. I hope you were able to kick that deadline's ass! (Or get an extension. Extensions are always good.)

      Not a fundie- but the other day a Michigan state rep tweeted a picture of a couple buses leaving the Detroit airport, wondering where the “illegal invaders” were being bussed to.

      The “illegal invaders” were the Gonzaga men’s basketball team, who had just arrived in Detroit for their regional semifinal matchup.

      Dude gets exposed and his response is basically, “STFU you communist.”

      He’s also an election denier who has predicted another civil war.

      Erica has two associations for me. One is Erika Shupe, and the other is that it was the name of the “Brown Owl” of my Brownie Guides group when I joined. Brown Owl is the traditional name given to the main leader of a Brownie unit here in the UK. I remember she always had her hair in a single long plait down her back.

      We use Brown Owl for the main leader in Canada too and Tawny Owl for second in command. 

      I am a Brown Owl! In Ireland, but was also a Tawny Owl in the UK. I love being Brown Owl and the whole story that goes with it.

      i think she announced it’d be Amaree,

      My guess was Arrow Canaan on the Baby Names Thread. Her boy names follow an ACC pattern & don't have cutesy spellings. Since there's not much with the aforementioned pattern, that's what lead me to my guess.

      I don’t think she announced it on her social media yet. I think she might’ve let it slip when ordering something with the baby’s name on it.

      Gotcha.  I don’t follow her but see reddit posts about her and couldn’t remember where I saw the name.

      If it is Amaree, it’s the first “non-noun as a name” name for awhile, right,  I can’t remember them all—anchor, armor, anthym, aynjel, are the four I remember that are other words.  Then andre, arissa (is is anissa?), anniston (i will never be convinced it’s not after jennifer anniston).  So I’m missing 3.   

      Anyway, lucky kid gets a normal name if it’s amaree
