I'm not a black hole!

It's lunch time, therefore time to take a bit of personal space from work and write a post! Of course, being the nerd I am, my post is about work. And how awesome it can be.

One of the things I like better than all others in a work situation is being able to give prompt responses. It is sexy to me, to get an email question or complicated query from someone and to have the ability to get back to them in lighting time with an intelligent, useful response.

Today that fatefully happened, and I am in such a good mood over it! My boss asked me give an opinion on the quality and potential of an 81 page cirricculum.

The organization hadn't been able to move forward with the cirriculum in the past because no one took the time to review it.

So I reviewed it, gave my impressions of the cirriculum's strong use of empirically validated health behavior change theories, and what we could do to get the cirriculum ready for publishing as a manual, and sent it back to my boss within 23 minutes, and he called me the anti-black hole of the organization! Ah, what luck!

This good fortune is of course opposite of my current work on a proposal due this week, a proposal I am clueless as to how to write, edit, take others edits, or finalize. C'est la vie.
