Actually, it's usually me.

No - wait - I'm Mr. Grammar Guy and his variants.
I'm not trying to take away your title, Mark, but shouldn't it be "Actually, it's usually I"? The "I" is not the object of "It's" (which would require the objective case); rather, "I" is simply renaming the "It's" (which requires the nominative case).

Just my two cents,

You're right - this situation is my biggest weakness.

BTW, I never said I was a correct grammar guy!
