two weeks..

I'm not sure how long its been, but it feels like an eternity.

I lie.

I know exactly how long its been.

She emailed me March 16, 2010 at 12:40pm Eastern Time.

Said she received my 8 songs, and my video would be ready in 4 weeks.

ok. fine. i guess since it can't be ready right now. i guess i'll take the 4 weeks. I mean its better than 5 weeks.

Being the responsible-time aware-anal freak that I am (stop laughing Jason you know i take long to get ready just to annoy you), I penciled in April 13th into my lovely iphone calendar to remind myself of how excited I should be on that Tuesday morning as I eagerly awaited the phone call of my videographer to tell me I could pick up the footage of my oh-so-fabulous wedding.

well guess what? yep. you guessed right...

the phone call did not happen.

A few days passed... I waited.

A few more days passed... I kept waiting. Those few days turned into 2 weeks. TWO WEEKS. Some people think two weeks is nothing. Tell that to a pregnant lady who has been ready to pop for 9 months. Tell her to wait 2 additional weeks and see her reaction. Believe you me. It won't be pretty. Not from experience or nuttin but I can only imagine. Sorry Jenny-I hope this doesnt happen to you! Seriously. I hope whatever you traumatized me with yesterday of the omgmom doesnt happen to you either! To any of us women for that matter!

Those two weeks felt like they were almost too much to document, too much for 500 words.

My blog from yesterday left me inspired and 'ballsy' so I decided to get the ball rolling (pun intended). Those of you that know me well can attest to the fact that I hate confrontation. I enjoy arguing. Or not arguing per say, but having my opinion/voice heard but I absolutely-positively hate confrontation or telling someone to do their job. Don't believe me? Ask my boss. He calls me a wimp all the time. For some reason or another the 'lovely' (for lack of a better word) traveling account officers at my job never seem to be able to submit their expense reports on time, and by month end, I am forced to write the dreaded 'hurry up and submit your expenses so I could close the damn month' email. Making me behind on all my other work and forcing me to stay late. I HATE WORKING LATE. Especially on a Friday. And month end this month, happens to land when? Friday. Lucky me. So yea, usually I wait till the last minute, give them the benefit of the doubt, and hope, just hope they will submit it by month end all on their own. Like responsible little adults. Has it happened in the almost 3 years I have been here? Nope. Not once. And every month I dread writing that email. But not this month. No no my friends. I was on fire. I was feeling so 'ballsy' yesterday that I emailed 2 account officers AND my videographer and told them both to do their jobs...double whammy. That's a good enough excuse to go to bonefish grill and celebrate.

For the ballsy emails that is. not for the wedding video. that wont be ready for another week!!!!!!!!!
