You know what’s depressing?

Here’s what:

A team I was on won an award recently.  We each got a certificate that the bosses had really nicely matted and framed for us.  Mine had been sitting in its box since I got it, but we’ve got this open house thing tomorrow, so I thought I’d put it up.

It is physically impossible to hang it in my cubicle.  It is too heavy and the cube walls are too thin to support it.

It’s the “Improving Our Workplace Award” (IOWA).  Apparently nobody did an award-winning project to make good cube walls.

A Mighty Bad Idea

This morning, in those weird minutes when the tweeting birds have sort of woken me up but the alarm hasn’t gone off yet, I had a very wonderful, albeit brief, dream.

In it, I was on the creative team for the movie A Mighty Heart, that one coming out soon about Daniel and Mariane Pearl, starring Angelina Jolie.  We decided to make a last-minute change in concept:  we changed the name to A Mighty Beatbox, and it was going to be all about hiphop.  I remember thinking to myself, “I wonder if Angelina Jolie can rap.”

Sadly, the world may never know.
