So I was out sick yesterday. I missed a meeting at which my attendance was absolutely not necessary.

This morning, I had scheduled a meeting for 9am, which I would normally never, ever do, but it was the only free slot in the calendar of one of the two critical attendees. I got up early!, and got to work by 8:30, so I wouldn't be arriving at or after the beginning of my meeting -- and not too long after I got here, I got a message from that attendee saying she couldn't come after all. There is no point in having the meeting without her, and rescheduling has been a pain (but we're on for tomorrow afternoon).

This afternoon, there was supposed to be another meeting with self and two other other people ... one of whom is out sick today. And was apparently already planning not to be here tomorrow. When there is a meeting with of the same people who were supposed to meet today, and which depends on today's meeting -- so there's no point in having tomorrow's meeting if we can't have today's meeting, but if everybody was going to be here, we could at least have had today's meeting tomorrow and rescheduled tomorrow's meeting, instead of rescheduling both.

Bottom line: I've got about 45 minutes of work to do today, two cancelled meetings, and very little else to do. I might take a long lunch and buy some pants. I will definitely make some yuletide progress.
