Email and 4 day work weeks

I've been stalling on making my entry, which is always a bad sign. This has been an unreasonably busy week around here, I'm not sure why. Email and meetings take up a tremendous amount of time. I like having the 4 day work week and I have found the 10 hour days to be conducive to catching up with emails and such, but this week it's already Thursday and I'm still catching up from last week...

I read a book called the 80/20 Individual. It was a decent book, although it took me a long time to get through it as it was very dry. The book talked about the concept of creating against the grain, that is very familiar to me at my current place of employment - seems like all initiatives and projects are like this - an uphill battle to get anything innovative done. It is exhausting at times.
