The one nice thing about being on the road is it's easier to keep track of my hours. When I am working from home AND on multiple projects, the day kind of becomes a blur. Like this morning, I have been up for an hour mostly checking email for two different projects. How do I track that? Does that become .5 for each? Or does that roll into the void and not really get counted? I always have this like guilt feeling when I am not sitting somewhere onsite for x number of hours per day. This week will be easy as I am on a plane tomorrow morning for Ohio. Very straightforward billing.
Yesterday was interesting. I did go back to bed after posting at 4 something. My friend in the hospital pinged me around 7:40 with an update. He had a cyst in his leg which was causing the pain. No blood clot, no major issues. They drove him back to his van and he was good to go. That was good but now I was up. I screwed around on line for a while and the kid finally got up around 11. We watched a movie before she had to head out to her grandmother's for easter stuff.
I ended up falling back asleep on the couch for a few hours. Yes, hours. Next thing I know it's 3 and she is texting me letting me know she will be home around 5:30. I ended up playing Deus Ex while I waited for her to get home.
At 6 we headed over to my director's house for their kid's birthday party/Easter Zombie movie fest. It was fun. We were there from 6:30 until about 10. Home by 10:30. We ate pizza, watched Shawn of the Dead and had a mellow evening with friends. They did surprise me with one thing. In September we are putting on a performance of a different movie other than Rocky. We will be doing Shock Treatment. (Which by the way was the movie I made the kid watch in the morning and for this reason). They asked if I would be interested in performing one of the main roles. That's a pretty big honor. I said I would do it. Now I have 4 months to learn the part, go to rehearsal, etc. First thing is to watch the movie a few dozen times to get the role down. Then to learn all the songs and lines. Oy. But I am good with doing it because it's a one time thing not a regular role. I can handle that.
All in all a good Sunday. I am a little tired this morning and need to go to bed early for my trip though.
