I am irritaed right now at my printer, which prints one postcard (usually) before jamming. I haven't even gotten to 200 yet today. Only 800 and some to go. It's not actually printing the full postcard, just a mailing address.
In between deadlines right now. The last deadline was last week at some point, but the issue was finally uploaded on Friday evening. I was yelled at vociferously by the publisher because I said I would get it to the printer by the afternoon. I told him that it WOULD have happened if he hadn't changed so many pages around. Each time he would do that we would have to repaginate. The upload time to Box.net was atrocious (so he could see the proof). Anyway, the issue is done and out of my hands at this point. Northern NJ papers are due this week, and I had asked to get all material in to me by Aug 4, due to my associate being at Wizard World Chicago this weekend (I was supposed to attend as well, but I had a conflict with a wedding of a good friend which I am in - the wedding, not the good friend), so of course, I only have info for 30 of 70 pages. These papers always seem to be an afterthought for the publisher - oh yeah, we ARE doing those papers, too, aren't we? And I get stuck holding the dead fucking rat.
I have a doc appointment tomorrow for a fun fun bone marrow biopsy. Have I mentioned it's fun?
Thursday I have a trip to Memorial Sloan Kettering for a PET scan, a CT Scan, an EKG, and blood work. Not a lot of fun. I will be pretty damn tired.
Friday I will no doubt be working my ass off to get the issue uploaded, and I have a rehearsal dinner to attend that night.
Saturday is the wedding on the beach, and I can't wait. It shoukd be a lot of fun if not sweat-inducing.
Had a meeting with a prospective presenter of Hamlet. Looks promising but I have a lot of work to do on the proposal. Luckily I have some talented friends who have already signed on to help. Anyone else?
