Busy as a bee

The term "busy as bee" comes from the lovely Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer. However, the phrase is slightly depressing to me when I think of the term quite literally. Which bees are the busy ones? The drones. And somehow relating myself to drone is not very comforting.

I'd like to think that my work is not confined to the same routine day after day. Still, as humans we are plagued to be repetitive. Thankfully this week will shake up my drone like nature.

While I will be pushing out the magazine this week at work, I also will be traveling to Ford's Chicago Assembly Plant to hear President Obama.

I think this week may win best week of the year...
