I have a colleague who often says, “I’m up to my ass in alligators.”  Yeah.  Okay.  Story of my life.  But what are you going to do about it?

But I ran into this today, which I like much better:  ”When you’re up to your ass in alligators, it’s easy to forget that your objective was to drain the swamp.”

I think that I need to stop battling the alligators and get back to draining the swamp…
