I had half a cup this morning. Maybe that’s why I was done in an hour. Oh. That can’t be it...the coffee was decaf.

Well, at least you're done and back!

Went and got a half cup of the real stuff. Maybe it will help.

Fired off an e-mail this morning that ups my "accomplishments" list for the week: "Finalized and submitted publication public review packages for Addenda j-o." Messy. For each of these packages I had to include:
- The addendum itself
- A copy showing changes from previous version, if any
- Votes on responses to commenters on previous version, if any
- Said responses, if any, signed (and preferably accepted) by commenters
- Draft minutes showing the vote
- E-mail ballots from voting members not present
- A filled-out submission form (many pages)
- Cover letter to the Manager of Standards
But I finished the packages yesterday and dated everything today so I could at least start with a sense of accomplishment.

But I keep asking myself: How on earth did I become such a bureaucrat???
