Nevermore
I wish I had some really great story to tell about all the fantastic things going on in my life. But I don't.
All I can really say is that I have been CONSUMED by work...and not in a good way. For example: my position and job duties are being changed without so much as a 5-minute speil. I'm being "transitioned" into a role that is not only henious, but the most despised of any ad agency...the PRODUCTION MANAGER. But that's not all. I get to handle all of the traffic, act as the "go to" bitch for the media director and basically be the "blame" of any and everything that might happen to go wrong with any project at any given time. AND I'M BEING 100% SERIOUS HERE. It wasn't bad enough that I've been putting in 12-hour days without breaks on a regualr basis or that I'm given zero direction on a project but yelled at when the tone is all worng...but now I'm being deprived of any semblance of creativity I've been affiorded thus far.
Alright...so there's a simple solution: GET OUT. Head for the hills. No amount of money (and trust me its small) is worth this insanity.
My rebuttal: I've got to move to Portland. So really, the only issue here is how long I can PHYSICALLY last at this. I passed out last week during a pitch to a potential new client (we can't even handle the clients we have). Got all sweaty and dizzy and stomach-achey. My face turned the color of stone. So I sat down in the corner and passed right out for a good second or two. I think that was my body's way of telling me to get away. So we'll see if I can last long enough to save up some more cash. And I'm being "pro-active" (Ok, from here on out every time I hear that word I'm going to get sick to my stomach because it is so over-used here) and am looking for jobs in Oregon... and I've actually got a phone interview this week. So maybe there is hope of escaping another arizona summer.
I saw "Zodiac" over the weekend. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and not just because it stars Jake Gyllenhall, Mark Ruffalo and Robert Downey Jr.
Its looking like we're finally going to get our green sofa from ikea, along with a new entertainment center. Oh the things I find joy in. Pathetic.
That is all my loves. That is all.
