Pre-emptive apologies.
I am not going to be around much this week, and for that, I apologize.
I am going to be incredibly frazzled this week, and for that, I apologize.
I am going to be short-tempered and grumpy this week, and for that, I apologize.
I will probably be prone to panic attacks and fits of despair, and for that, I apologize.
If you have to interact with me at all this week, you will probably encounter these things, so I wanted to get all this out of the way up front.
Hopefully, I will be more normal after this weekend.
Thank you for your patience.

And if you even think of saying "I'm sorry" to this, I'm going to shake a big pointy stick in your general direction...
