This morn\u00ading around 9:50 I glanced at my cal\u00aden\u00addar and real\u00adized that I had a rather impor\u00adtant meet\u00ading at 10:00. In Sacra\u00admen\u00adto. 125 miles away<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As my stom\u00adach sank into my socks I began mak\u00ading those pathet\u00adic, des\u00adper\u00adate sounds I am prone to make in such situ\u00adta\u00adtions, \u201cUrgh. Ack. Jeez. No. Must be a mis\u00adtake. Shoot. AARGH!\u201d<\/p>\n

That may seem mild, but I assure you that if I was pos\u00adsessed of a more flex\u00adi\u00adble vocab\u00adu\u00adlary I would have employed every unwhole\u00adsome utter\u00adance at the stereo\u00adtyp\u00adi\u00adcal sailor\u2019s dis\u00adpos\u00adal. As it is I prob\u00ada\u00adbly pushed the bound\u00adaries for some\u00adone in my line of work\u2013at least inter\u00adnal\u00adly.<\/p>\n

Any\u00adway, I was out the door in a flash and arrived just in time for lunch. <\/p>\n

As it turned out I only missed the infor\u00adma\u00adtion\u00adal part of the meet\u00ading and was able to be present for the deci\u00adsion-mak\u00ading dis\u00adcus\u00adsions.<\/p>\n

Which is for\u00adtu\u00adnate, because the world needs more unin\u00adformed peo\u00adple mak\u00ading impor\u00adtant deci\u00adsions\u2026 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
