Caissie! What a joy to hear that you were THE FIRST overnight guest at the PR house (in turn, an honor for Prince himself), and that upon your arrival the sky was turning purple! A double infusion of joy for this listener and, dare I say, the cosmos. There, I dared.
This episode made me think of one of the most helpful things I've ever taken from a boss, which is the Grown Ups Rule. The Grown Ups Rule is as follows:
Grown ups ask for what they want, and grown ups don't get mad when they don't get what they didn't ask for.
It's obviously a bit oversimplified, BUT it is such a North Star for me. It is also one of the only two rules I have at my house. (The other is not to use the buzzer on the dryer because it really freaks out my dog.)
Unrelated, but I'd absolutely purchase merchandise that says, "Of course, there were haters."
Since Busy hasn’t seen Purple Rain, and Caissie is such a Prince pro, it would be fun to hear a movie commentary of you ladies watching it. Maybe as a bonus only for Substack subscribers?
Personally, I’m fighting a bad cold (not Covid). But the one thing I did my best at this week was leading a monthly meeting, and impressing everyone with some hard to find documents from 1891! No make up on and high on cold medicine. 😅
