so i'm sitting in this teleconference
it's not something that concerns me directly, so really, i should just go back to my desk and get some work done.
on the other hand, i can sit here, read blogs and even take a moment to post something because i've got nothing to contribute to this particular conversation.
then again, i'm kinda hungry because i ran out of the house without eating breakfast. and i've pretty much finished slurping up my morning beverage (transported in a stainless steel starbucks mug, allowing a full two hours for proper cooling off, thus preventing another episode of unpleasant tongue-burning).
what to do....what to do....
[twiddles thumbs and taps keyboard for about five minutes trying to decide whether or not to be productive]
[checks bloglines for new posts to read]
[checks all personal e-mail accounts each for the umpteenth time]
[checks work e-mail to see if there are any immediate action items that need to be taken care of right this minute...nothing]
[twiddles thumbs for five more minutes]
hmmm...
la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la...
crap. teleconference ended early.
back to work.
[sighs]

sounds very very similar to my days in the office... hmmm... do you work with me?
Yeah, I'm pretty sure you might work in my office too.
Been there done that.
The only bad thing is that now, the only teleconference I have to take part in is kind of organized by me. I have to play social butterfly and I fucking hate that.
