Flowers Suck It

2003-10-26

No fair. Two of my (one-week old) windowboxes are wilting. Seriously, falling over, wilting. I watered them. I talked to them. I shimmied for them. Nothing worked.

See kids, this is why you never, ever should try new things.

I'm doing a website for a friend who sings and acts. We consulted, I quoted her a price that was 1/3rd what I would normally charge, I made three comps, she picked one, and ahead we go.

Until last week. She was giving me her photos and reviews and said, "I would like to have the photos fade in and then the review fade in and then fade out and fade fade fade."

I said, um, that's flash. Is it hard? No, it's not hard, but it takes a fuck-ass long time and costs more. I didn't tell her that, cause I'm a pussy. We're gonna have some third-grade flash on that there site. I am not spending time to make it cool. I have too much to do.

At the same time, if I want it in my portfolio, I can't put dumb flash on it.

In other news, I just secured a $5,000 flash contract that WILL have to look good. There are 12 pieces and I gave them a pretty good rate, but at the same time, I was kind of hoping they would say "too expensive" because I am a lazy bitch.

Isn't that fascinating? No? Right.
