I'll keep it brief because I'm — you guessed it — BUSY. I'm just wondering this morning, what is it about "busy" that always seems to attract more of the same? Why, when you have, for example, four deadlines in the first three days of the week, are you inundated with availability inquiries from clients (communications you'd rather not put off), personal calls/emails/invitations (stuff you want to focus on), and a growing list of must-suddenly-do-nows around the house?
What do you think? Do all these things always hover within your sphere but simply become more noticeable when a confluence of outside demands appears? Or does the "busy" energy you're putting out into the universe actually spark something that makes other people/forces seek you out?
Naturally, now — as my busy factor peaks — is the absolute best time to stop and try to get philosophical about . . . anything.
Before I get back to it, I want to give a quick shout out to any UW editorial certificate students checking out the blog: Hi if you're out there — fun to talk at you last night!

Interesting--I never considered this possibility before. You could have something, though. Ever since I decided to start a blog, a zillion of those must-suddenly-do-now items have cropped up in my life. Unfortunately, I've allowed my writing to take a back seat as a result.
Fantastic blog! I can't wait to sit down and peruse it.
