tired...so tired.

Sweet shazbot. Early morning meeting, color copies, files, author emailing about PR, yadda yadda...barfaroni.

Anyways, went offsite to meet with company reps for a major cable channel. Not sure if we can do anything or not...but it's possible once things are in place.

Close to getting books done...but paperwork needs to be filled out next. Oy. Rush rush on everything. Glaaargh.

Ended up having a last minute dinner with T since she was in the area. Got a great burger and then went to get bubble tea...ran into our mutual friend that we were talking about before...small world.

Tired. Plans for wedding this weekend...and I am taking Friday as a work at home day...urrgh. Just want to pass out.

Um...date tomorrow? I'm not super excited. It's nothing to do with the girl. Our interactions have been great and light so far. I'm just completely preoccupied by work and wedding obligations and planning ahead....urrgh. I need to chill out and just have a beer and some good conversation. Let's hope it's a great time. I need it.

I will TRY to refrain from making out. I promise.

WAAAAUUUGGGH!!!

So close and yet so far. Files are still not perfect. Lots of back and forth and hopefully they will be right by tomorrow. GAH! I just want this over with. I need a break so badly.

And more things have to be rushed and more fires need to be put out. I just ran around all day in a haze. I can't believe I am functioning on such poor sleep lately.

Been reading "Into the Wild" so I picked up the movie today too. I have to admit, the guy reminds me of a friend (or two) of mine...which makes me sad. Someone who is social and liked...but still is kind of on the outside and does their own thing...and you worry that they are going to do something drastic one day for some kind of bizarre ideal--due to something long in the past. Sad story.

Found out that one of my friends lost her twin baby boys last year. I had no idea. We had been out of touch until recently...and wow. What sad news. You always hope to hear that people are doing well...you never expect something so tragic. Pray for her if you can.

Meetings tomorrow and more files exchanged. It's going to be nuts. Suit and tie tomorrow. Will go with the new haircut.

Off to bed super early.

almost...done....

And yet...so far away. So we missed our disc to repro date...but apparently it's ok since production will shuffle things around. Yeesh. Ok..I'll let them take care of it. Main thing was that the client was happy with the revisions and once they are completely done...voila.

So...I was very tense and stressed out today...and I can feel it fading...but after tomorrow or Weds... that should be it. BUT...other things are bubbling up that make me want to yack.

Anyways, highlight of the day... awesome box of trade paperbacks came into publicity...and I got to grab a few. Sweet.

AND...weird...weird. I may be working with a certain heiress. Let's just leave it at that. Speaking to her rep on Monday. So strange.

Anyways, got a haircut. Cleaned up, watched HIMYM...and now I want to go to sleep super early. Wooo.

can I barf now?

So...my files are officially late. Coming in on Monday and I have no idea why everyone else is so cool about it. We are going to miss our date...so why am I the only one freaking out?

Anyways, just a long tiring day...I was beat...but went to meet T for the MCR/TBS concert. She was...an hour late. I ran into an old friend outside...and man, he just talks and talks. Urrgh.

Anyways, miserable rainy day but the concert was pretty cool. Missed a bit of TBS...but had a good time with T. MCR was pretty rad. Played everything I wanted to hear except "Thank You For the Venom"...which was weird. Other company people...turned out some guy's daughter and her friends...we didn't really interact too much.

Home...crashed. BSG was awesome though.

Saturday: Got up way too early. Did some chores...which reminds me...

My futon frame finally came off the rails so I decided to just throw it out. That futon has been in our family for like 20 years. (Um...I'm pretty sure one of my cousin's was conceived on it...weird.) It's the only thing I can sleep on comfortably. I can't sleep comfortably on bed springs...and I love that futon. Guess I'll have to get a bed frame.

Ended up taking a massive nap. Slept like another 4 hours...and I'm still beat.

Monday and Tuesday are going to be nightmares of stress. I am sure of it. Anyways, I'll just have to deal with it. I've really done all I could. I just hope things don't get too delayed. Sigh.

I just want to fast forward. I've been really, really not well because of this. I feel it physically...and I'm having like work nightmares and insomnia. Not good.

Mother's Day stuff tomorrow. And then...back to the work week. Help me, Lord. Help.

Blarrrffgh.

ugh.

Files are late. In tomorrow. Client seems fine with it...but if it's not spot on...I don't know if we will have time to correct all of this.

Stupid paperwork and other random distracting things...makes we want to vomit.

Comics...sweet comics. Secret Invasion...awesome.

Lunch with KB and AI...had a good time and took them out for their birthdays. Everyone is stressed for different reasons, a nice lunch out is a nice temporary fix. But even fun stuff makes me want to hurl because each buzz of the blackberry means someone wants something else and it adds to my nausea.

Would I rather be doing this than any job I've had prior...um...hellz yeah.

Next week...stress will be less. But the pressure is on for other things. Am I ever going to be able to take vacation? Glaaargh.
