Well it's Halloween so of course I am deathly ill. Deathly. I didn't even go out last night.

Work is literally killing me. 15 hour day after 15 hour day fueled by nothing but the fear of failure and craft service.

Things I plan to do to counteract this:

Las Vegas weekend with Lisa, Dana, Kate, Chad, Larry, Pat and Charlie in mid November.
Colorado with Rebecca, Kurt, Chad, Chris, Matt, Mike and whoever else feels like coming for New Years.
Abroad trip for our anniversary late February. Either Amsterdam, Paris and Ireland OR Egypt. Hopefully the latter.

Give me more.

Aquarius

Just found out we're doing 5 consecutive shows in Brooklyn the end of January/first week in February. The icing on the (birthday) cake: We will be taping a Babyface/LA Reid Hits show the day I turn 26. Maybe he'll serenade me?

B & E

To shed some light on how truly demented my boss is I would love to share a little office secret. The password we need to confirm with the security company that calls when our alarm is tripped is: "Help Me."

Hey pig, yeah you. Hey pig piggy pig pig pig.

Today Frank's son called and said he was diagnosed with the dreaded H1N1. At that moment I was walking up a flight of rickety, splintering stairs in our warehouse while deeply contemplated if I could pitch myself down them and get hurt enough to go home but not to leave any permanent damage. Probability was never my strong suit though so as soon as I heard of this whole swine flu scenario I set to drumming up some symptoms. Trouble is, everyone else at my office had the same idea. Psychosomatic addict insane freaks, all of us. The sad thing is we all have to work regardless.

Too. many. projects. I'm currently doing almost the production coordination for a Chesney meeting in Nashville Monday and Tuesday, a Tim McGraw show on Wednesday, Michael McDonald rehearsal the next Monday and Tuesday with a taping on Wednesday, followed by another taping with another group of artists all with different representation on Thursday, and then another show the next week, and that's on top of my normal workload. I have about 15% done. The rest of the year is already booked up with 4 NY shows this winter, 3 Grainger shows in March, 6 Chesney premieres in different cities and god knows what else surrounding the release supposedly in April, 4 LA shows in May, and multiple small 3D shoots at iconic outdoor venues throughout the summer. Bitch, bitch, bitch, blah, blah, blah.

Domesticity

So my lack of entries/a life can be attributed to three things: constant work shit, house project shit, and Don Draper. I have done nothing but answer emails, paint my house and watch the first two seasons of Mad Men for the last week.
