Relax!

I am seriously taking some of my PTO soon. I have plenty, but I kept putting it off, because every time a project started wrapping up? OOPS there's a new project with another tight deadline!

Well, pardon my french, but fuck that shit. If I keep feeling this burnt out, I'm not going to continue to do my job well, anyway, so I might as well take a couple days of PTO and give myself a brain break. I'm bugging my boss lady about when I can do that, so hopefully soon.

I got word from my nutritionist that, with how my bod has been feeling for the past week or so, I should probably take a day or two off from workouts, because I'm probably fighting a bug or something. So, I'm taking today off from the gym, and it feels goooood. AND I won't have to stay late at work today, either. I still have to be a good monkey and eat right, but I'll recover better that way, anyway, so I can live with that.

We have a *really* exciting shoot coming up this Sunday. It is awesomely creative, featuring amazing jewelry by our client. We're working with one of my absolute favorite MUAs, and several models whom I love working with. AND! We're getting paid to do it! It's a pretty tight budget all around, but the rate is fair for the Portland fashion market, and getting paid for fabulous, creative fashion work? I can't ask for much more than that! (well, okay, maybe I can, but it's pretty effin' sweet, regardless)

You know, I hadn't been feeling that excited about the shoot, but now that I'm writing about it, I'm getting all pumped up again. My brain still feels too globby to add much in the way of creative juice, but we already have great ideas, so it'll rock either way. Awww yea.

Anyhoo, I'm being boring in the name of my own sanity, so I'm going to sit on my ass, watch movies, and play video games tonight. I've been playing through the weird campaign mode in Soul Calibur III on my PS2, and it's a little bizarre, but still smashy-good fun, and my custom character has the best outfit EVAR.

Oh yeah, and even Obama's web site is better. Neener neener! ;) Yeah, the article *is* likely biased, but the comments are interesting, and I'm a fan of whoever's on Obama's 1337 design staff, because he's always had pretty campaign materials. (And seriously, 85 validation errors on the McCain site? FOR SHAME.)

Time to get back on the ball, I guess. Oof!
