Dear Auntie Annie: Got a hair-on-fire one today. Am not feeling psyched for it. Would rather talk the editor out of the story and go sit by the river for the rest of the day. Can you call in bored?
Dear Bored: How can you possibly be bored? The ship is sinking! At the very least, keeping your head above water should provide ample entertainment. But then again . . . I feel you. It's hard to come to work revved and ready. But you must. And making your deadline today with a kick-ass story is just the medicine you need right now. So save the daydreaming for the glass of wine AFTER deadline and get on it.
