  • How do I know I’m alive if I don’t feel fear?

    5 questions pertinent to my WideEyedWeek:

    1. Why do deadlines cluster?
    2. Why does bureaucratic paperwork take an order of magnitude longer than time budgeted for it?
    3. Why am I smarter as deadlines approach?
    4. Why do I prefer to be startled by deadlines clearly marked on next week’s calendar?
    5. How do I know I’m alive if I don’t feel fear?

    Anybody have any tums?
