Official "I'm NOT EVEN CLOSE to leaving yet" Thread

[JelloPuddingChat]

I'm currently working on a rough draft that probably has to be very close to the final since its due on the Tuesday after Coachella. It wouldn't be such a huge problem but I have to work all day tomorrow, get home by 11:00pm and have my rough due by 6:30am. I'm a bit worried, but obviously not enough to get off this fucking addicting board.

I should be off to Indio on Thursday about 1pm.

[CitizenJ]

I have classes and work for 12 + hours tomorrow, and a class thursday morning. blah. Coachella is so close, but these days aren't going by fast enough!

This is the OFFICIAL thread for those NOT on their way to Coachella right now. If you are not “OUTTA HERE” or "ON MY WAY, then you should be posting in this thread only.

As of today through Thursday night, I am NOT on my way to Coachella. In fact, I have the biggest meeting that I have ever had to prepare for Thursday from 10 to Noon. In addition to the typical Execs who are there each month, others have invited themselves because of the insightful topics we will be discussing. That means, I can’t half-step this agenda.

So, I’m really trying to put together a meaningful presentation, but Coachella is a F)(#)(*ing distraction. In fact, I’m drafting this goddam post in PowerPoint (slide 5) of the presentation. The map, set times, people are on their way, and all this crap. How the hell am I supposed to not let Coachella distract me for just a few hours today and a few hours tomorrow???

On top of all this, It’s my boss’ house we’re staying at in La Quinta. He graciously offered it up, but we have so much work to do, I can’t even shoot the shit with him about it. “Hey, a couple questions about your awesome house”…”Hey how’s that presentation coming along…” :LDJ)(*&@#)(HDJP J!!!1!!!!!!!!!

Who else is in complete hell right now?

56 pages of PPT on legal size is good to go in 30 minutes.

Some jerk just tried to schedule a 4:30 meeting this afternoon. I said Noooo Nooooo Noooooo.

[humanoid]

my car has been in the dealership getting several things fixed for a full week.....I just got it back last night, all excited to get out there and begin the fun...

turns out, they didn't really fix one of the main problems they set out to fix, and I now need to take my car back and leave it over the weekend...fuck

I was driving my car to Indio, so now my friend is all pissed because he has to drive now....lame

[Ravingmad]

Can't leave until tomorrow morning. Luckily it's only about a 3 hour drive for me, but still, trying to work today is KILLING ME. All I'm doing is screwing around the boards. And I have stuff to do. And an important meeting this afternoon.

I think this whole thread is probably summed up with

[Californicator]

shit i work til 9 tonight, still have some last minute items to buy tomorrow morning, can't check in to hotel until 4pm Friday...Won't be on the polo field until about 5 or 6, depending on how long it takes my girlfriend to pick an outfit and do her hair and makeup.

So close, yet still so far...I'd call in sick today but I already called out twice this month (because I was actually sick). FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKK!!!

[DarkoPolo4]

Cliffs: - My plane gets into LAX at 5:40 pm...on FRIDAY. FUCK.
