Hugs appropriate for work stress requested. [More:] I get overwhelmed and need to be reminded to focus on one thing at a time - I have trouble letting fires burn while I put another out. I am in for a rough two months.
FOCUS!

And,

{{hugs}}

hugs for rainbaby. Work related stress in the mid of summer?! That sucks lemons.

Plan a vacation for the end of it, baby. And, you know, prioritize. Some fires extinguish themselves without you having to do anything. I love those!

Oooh! Hacienda Boy! Thank you. Be a dear and put it right here by my laptop.

Thanks guys. Carmina, I'm in an admin/support job, which is good because I don't have to Make Business Happen, like sell stuff or schmooze or anything, but bad because my work is actual worky-work - if it's here, it doesn't go away till I do it.

Velveeta does everything for me, gaspode.

Work-related items are verboten at Hacienda Metaxatl, rainbaby, thus your laptop will be confiscated briefly by a crack team of highly-trained proto-human homo bonobos; I've given them instructions to complete all your open tasks and go forward with enough work so that you'll have nothing to worry about during your stay. It should take them about five minutes, after which we'll return your laptop and refresh your drink.

Lunch will be served anytime you like, just ring this bell and one of our robot otters will bring you a menu.

Don't worry; there's weed in the trunk.

Hugs, hon, it'll all work itself out. Besides, as I always say, it's a museum, not a hospital - nobody's gonna DIE. Change the word museum as suited. Unless you work in a hospital. Then you're fucked. Hugs anyway!

At Le Meridien Resort & Spa in Cancun, it's called a Cocoa Beach. So delicious. I could dream all day.
