You think you know someone

My coworker and I compiled three bags full of tapes into a DVD collection for an actress. It's a tedious process, and he spent way more hours on the project than I did. When the lady came in to pick up the DVD collection upon its completion, my coworker told her that she had a nice legacy. She blew off the compliment completely. And when she noticed that some of the tapes had been combined onto a single DVD, she started throwing a fit.

My coworker began trying to explain to her that there was no loss in quality, and she began complaining that she wanted the highest quality available. The tapes she brought in hold an hour's worth of film each, and DVDs are capable of holding 6 hours of footage. If you bring in Jurassic Park* part 1 and Jurassic Park part 2 on some 3/4 tapes from the 80's or even 70's, wouldn't it be nice for them to be combined onto a single DVD? And you're not losing quality!! You're gaining convenience. The difference between the movie spread out over one versus two DVDs is NOT noticeable except for the fact that you're going to have to pop in a second DVD. It's not going to change anything otherwise.

*Jurassic Park is just an example. She was not cool enough to star in Jurassic Park*

So she bitched and complained, and my coworker passed her off to another editor who calmed her down and defused her. It was also a complete shock because she seemed like such a normal person from all of the films we basically had to sit and watch with her in them.

And guess what? She won the fight. The client is always right. And that now means I'm the one who has to redo the transfers! That equals me having to look at her ugly mug for 12 hours all day tomorrow. Did I even mention she has red hair? She's supposed to be pretty according to her movie roles. But I can't see that. I can't see that at all. She's a complete hag and has-been.

What a bad way to end my work day. It was just nearing 5 o' clock which is the time I normally bust out of this joint.

Just venting.
Hollywood is a bitch.

Coffe is a drug

a client named Tito offered to buy the office some coffee and he came back with a large cup of Seattle's best for me. When I was halfway through with it, I could already feel the caffiene taking it's course...I have an empty stomach filled with a half stick of dynamite and I'm not finished taking my medicine yet

Ssome people like to plant flowers
I would rather plant trees

I swear I'm going to drop my phone into the toilet one of these days

Big wheel keep on turning

Proud Mary keep on burning
And we're rolling, rolling
Rolling on the river

Da da da...

And I feel so strong
If nothing goes wrong
...
Stay right back cause I'm taking on the dancefloor

the giant fuck you

I just remembered a story I wanted to share, but it wasn't worth saying. It was only worth writing. I may take a few shortcuts or PARAPHASE as I go because I'm dead tired. I did a couple extra sets of sit-ups and push-ups leading right into my bed time. I was hoping to send my thoughtful mind into a deep sleep.

But anyways,
Imagine a trap from the movie Saw. But then invert all of the dark colors into bright whites and greys mixed with a puzzle inside. I walked into one of those earlier today on my delivery run. I suppose I'll write more about it later though. I can't do the story justice when acid is eating away at my muscles. Sleep time instead.

Oh well, good night world.

The Best Week(end) Ever

1 mai tai
1 kamikaze
1 long island (mistake)
2 washington apples
And
3-4 French kisses

River rafting was a great experience.

Every second matters in life. It really adds up because life is too short.


I want to work hard this week so that I should be able to see her again. I reeeeeaaally need to take care of that work for Penny. And by really need to, I mean must. As soon as my foot steps in LA I'm already behind. I'm a nitwit. I can't wait to be back in school...

A couple things to remember
-Fix car, get new catalytic converter
-Finish work for Penny
-Continue working out (I think I've actually been doing surprisingly well in this department
-Execute clock movie idea for Clock Day, August 17th? 14th?? Whatever.
