I'm tearing out what little hair I have left right now.
Where in the hell can I find the time to do all the shit that needs to be done here at work without starting to put in 12 hours a day!? (...again...)
<whine>
I have a Powerpoint presentation to complete for review by Friday for which the requisite information is still trickling in, and the VP wants to have a package published for all the client reps; I have a project pre-qualification to complete for another client; that same VP has enlisted my aid in detailing our company's 5-year revenue forecast out to 2010, followed by a more stringent forecast for our 2006 Fiscal Year; I'm overseeing the development and maintenance of a schedule for all of our active construction projects; I'm compiling an equipment forecast for the 2005 calendar year for our +500-piece equipment fleet and I just received a bid package from a co-worker who requires assistance in his tender preparation. And I've been meaning to do up job descriptions for my small staff since just before the Christmas break. Not to mention a steadily growing list of "Things to Be Developed for the Betterment of the Company" that I will be spearheading with the aid of the staff that we don't frikkin' have yet.

There.
Now that I got that out of the way, I'll just update my task list, reprioritize it and get my fuckin' ass in gear such that the quality of my work will not suffer for lack of concerted effort. (I firmly believe that the amount of effort spent, in general, complaining about the excess of work that one has would be better spent in pursuit of completion of said work and, if such actions were realized, one would often find a dearth of excess as a result.)
And besides, tomorrow I start my evening swimming lessons with my son for the next ten weeks. Which reminds me, I need to buy myself one o' them fancy underwater disposable cameras so I can take adorable pictures of me and my son (mostly the boy) underwater and post them here for all and sundry. Since, you know, that's what's really important anyway...
