Well going to bed by 8 didn't pan out. Not even close. Try 2:30 again. But this time I felt like it was for a good reason. I helped a buddy with a crashed laptop from 9 until 2. He and I had talked on Sunday about a problem he was having and I told him he could come over and I would see what I could do. Problem is that I figured he would be over around 5 or 6, but he couldn't get free until almost 9. It was important as it was his only computer, he didn't have a backup (they never do), and he would be out of town starting on Wednesday. Sigh. Good old Catholic guilt. Yeah, I will help you.
I spent the majority of the day not doing anything as I am still waiting for data to be loaded. The upside is I was able to have a good conversation about this particular issue with my boss and we are looking at reassigning me temporarily as this client is not ready for me yet. Whether they think they are or not. I was also able to assist him with a potential new client since I was sitting free. This new client is a little bit of a drive, but it's a winery which in itself would be fun to do. Plus there is a three day gig coming up in Monterey which would be a blast and let me get some hotel points. I am waiting to hear back on that one. That would be really fun as I could have a little mini-vacation and at the end of that week, the kid starts spring break finally and I could grab her and we would have a nice time. Crossing my fingers on that.
Around 5 I helped my co-head on tech crew move our prop vehicle to our director's house and unload a bunch of stuff as we don't need the prop van for almost a month plus. Everything we have for the shows between now and then will fit in our cars. Him and I had some nasty ass fried chicken before hand, took care of the van, then I headed right home to deal with the laptop issue.
That was my day. Nothing exciting, but got some things done, cleared my mind a little about work, and made people happy. Okay. I can handle and accept all that.
