Murphy’s Love

Geeez Louise! yesterday was just one of them days when Murphy decided to shower us with tubs full of love and affection. Am not going to go into the trivial details ... but i simply have to vent and so I SHALL !!

So 'the company' has a new gm and it so happens that he walks into the middle of a summer campaign and kudos to him .. cuz he actually set more than a few things into place .. anyway...

deliverables:
22 simple visuals
designed + printed + mounted by Wednesday 8:00am for presentation to 'the clients'

series of screwups:
06:30 pm - Printer runs out of magenta toner
07:00 pm - Blackout and all systems down at the Zone
08:30 pm - Realize that the printer shops close at 10:00pm
09:15 pm - A dangerous Montoya impersonation on a little vw begins
09:30 pm - Diversions on the road that takes me off the map and the road
09:45 pm - Out of gas upon reaching the shop
10:00 pm - Printer bribed to stay and work beyond closing time
10:30 pm - Printer screw up mounting and reprints follow
11:45 pm - No parking available at home
12:30 pm - Baked Beans for dinner

arrrggghhhhh !!!

its 9:45 am the next morning - the client service have gone for presentation ...and whilst i sit and write this post.. i realize that all my recent posts have been so godamn bimboesque and hollow. Where have i lost the will to write about the stuff i really want to write about ?? such as design and pretentious dubaisms....

i can actually feel the familiar 'dubai bubble' growing around me now ...
somebody please give me a hairclip - a pencil - a knife ... anything .... aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa !

...

i'll be ok .. soon .. i think
