This past weekend, I hated clients. I refused to do any work. I refused to worry about what Monday was going to bring. I refused to go over in my head how we were going to meet all of the deadlines in front of us. I refused to spend any time with budgets or spreadsheets. As a result, Monday was awful, Tuesday was as bad as Monday, and Wednesday, well it’s just starting.

The lesson? Love your clients 24/7, no matter what it does to your weekend.

(Note to any clients who may read this post: The “hating clients” is simply a metaphor. I love you deeply.)

Here’s a Blogen-bonus question to ponder: Can anybody tell me what the President, the Harvard professor, and the Cambridge policeman drinking a beer at a picnic table on the White House lawn is going to do for race relations in America? Will this be the official post-racial beer that so many delusional pundits have been thirsting for?
