So I called the client, the woman I met initally, who I liked and who liked me, and who I sold the idea of me and this PRICK doing the doco to, and I told her he was going to be using the first 8 minutes to show clients, but was preventing me using it, and she said she'd think about that. I called her colleague and pitched my case too, and today I called back to see what their decision was - I've been steeling myself for a week - and she said yes. She said it wasn't fair that he could show it, and he could and would, so she mailed him while I was on the phone and asked him to release it to me after the launch on the 31st.
Which is just ace.
But now I'm fretting because he can put a foot high time code or his company's logo on it, or release some terrible low quality version. I guess if he does that he's declaring war. I dunno if he will. But I've been so wrong about the bitch that who knows.
We'll see. At least K is coming to the launch with me and I won't have to sit next to him and play nice.
Its been a shit week all round. I'm having a terrible fight with my best friend. I'm pretty sure she thinks I'd be a rotten parent. Imagine caring about that 5 years ago. - now it seems like the most important thing in the world. My 2 favourites are leaving at the end of the month. We can't seem to find a house to buy. And the flatmate refuses to clean anything except her own mess in the kitchen. She acts like we're some kinda clean freaks.
And Phil hasn't called me about cutting the Badminton Championships. I sent him a thankyou mail for taking me out to lunch last week, and I've heard nothing back.
Piggy is sweet though. K bought a new car, a bottle green VW series 3 with an excellent bassy rumbling engine and leather seats. It nearly snowed here on Wednesday. I got to spend yesterday on InDesign instead of typing specs and photocopying. My boss is away. We're going to the pub for lunch. It's Friday.
Me, always looking on the bright side.
