The communications editors are not communicating nicely this week

Things got real, then a little crazy, then a little annoying and confusing. Two people with opposing ideas of me make me think about how I talk to different people differently, and how, really, I don't like to talk a lot. When I'm overloaded with pie in the sky ideas and metaphors and hand gestures, I don't really know how to respond, and I like to say what I need to say in as few words as possible, and maybe some people take that as disinterest. I don't know. The worst part? I missed the September birthday cake in the afternoon!
