Chocolate Bread

It wasn't Cheryl's famous chocolate chocolate-chip banana bread, but it was still a welcome break at work. One of the nice people at the office brought in a loaf of chocolate bread (Amish friendship bread with cocoa and chocolate chips), which sweetened a few meetings - and there were quite a few meetings today.

Funny how the day zips by so quickly when so many hours are spent in meetings. Today it was
* meeting at 9
* meeting at 10
* meeting at 11
* meeting at 1
* meeting at 2
* picking up Adam from Chess Club at 3:30 -- or was it 4?

Most of the day is spent juggling other people's work, actually; talking to them or sending emails, trying to make sure they are properly tasked with work and not running into roadblocks. Trying to keep them from having to attend all the pointless meetings on my schedule. Let them do the real work.

Tomorrow I get to give a group of college students a tour of the factory. That's going to be the highlight of my work-week.
