Crazy schedule

OK OK OK OK OK OK OK. Calm down Raph. I suppose this 2 cups of java I just had right now isn't helping me calm my nerves.

I'm in one of my mad semi-panic phases where I'm looking at all the projects and commitments I have and I'm fighting panic. I don't suppose everyone goes through life like this...especially in my line of work. I'm sure there are designers who look at all the stuff they do and just wade through it calmly.

But I don't. I've been in these situations before and they always come out fine. But it's not without a good amount of good old fashioned panic where I'm just trying to do 10 things at once. The funny thing is, I don't usually like this feeling, but history has taught me I thrive best when I get in this situation. It's like it pushes me into the zone where I can just bang out the work.

So I almost welcome this feeling as crazy as it sounds. I bury myself in work till I get paniced and then get it all done. Weird huh?

It's crazy all the stuff I have to do this week. 4 project commitments...not all of them are due but they're certainly enough to keep me well occupied and juggling my time schedule. I most certainly have to start pushing new customers off till December. Which shouldn't be so bad since that's only 3 weeks away. Time passes way too fast!

Let's see...today. My damn bathroom light is near death...it's 75% dimmer this morning and it's flickering in this near-epileptic inducing rate it's making me feel like I'm in some Matrix movie as I'm brushing my teeth this morning. I'll have to swing by home depot tonight.

Dad's birthday dinner tonight too. Same place it seems....Fook Yuen. Or commonly known as "Fuck You In" if you don't know any better. I swear, sometimes foreign language speakers need to consult with the native business people before naming their restaurants. Right next to Fook Yuen is Phuket Thai. Dear God. A lot of Phuks over there in that one area. Yes, it's immature of me to think of it, I know the proper pronunciation....but don't tell me you didn't THINK the same thing to yourself.

Phone calls.... briiiing.

Ah, my upstairs neighbor needs help typing up an invoice. AAAH Another task on my endless schedule.

Time to dig in and work!!
