Seriously, I should have just sat back and enjoyed my time in the sun the other day. My workload was mostly complete, I had no clients knocking at the door. It was a golden time, and I celebrated by complaining. In order to teach me a lesson, God has deemed that my workload shall instantly triple, my clients will all grow opinions, and a plague will be unleashed against all of the first-born in Egypt.Let this be a lesson to the rest of you, leave well enough alone. If you ever find yourself in a situation where you don’t really have anything to do, don’t complain, simply do nothing. I hear that it can be glorious, though now I’ll never know. I hadn’t even finished my blog about being not busy when a client phoned and needed stuff done. Then my boss informed me that I’ll be starting another project. Then I was booked to go do some photography. And my bank called to make an appointment to secure my mortgage. And my wife asked me to get all of the utilities, phone and whatnot set up for the new house. And her birthday is this weekend. And one of my clients, when presented with 7 logos, chose none of them. And my boss told me that prior to the 22nd of June I have to prepare checklists and production manuals for our new employees in order to guarantee they maintain my standards of work. And a client got back to me with content, so I have to build their site. And another client gave the okay to go ahead and start their site.

Oh, well I suppose I should get on some of that. I’m going to stick with my usual “if there’s work, there’s a reason to pay me” mentality and get crackin’. There were about 3 hours there where I really didn’t have much to do. Sometime next year, when I’ve caught up to the work I’m doing now, I’ll look back at those 3 hours fondly and remember a simpler time. Until then, back to work I go…. hi ho, hi ho.

As an aside, has anyone else noticed that Blogger doesn’t recognize the word ‘blog’ in their spell checks? I find that to be decidedly odd.
