So here’s the scoop. I finally caved in a few hours ago and decided to start working on a client project I’ve been ignoring for the last 10 days. It’s a three-panel brochure for an event planner in Wisconsin. I had a hard time getting inspired for this one because I honestly don’t feel much like working any more. However, when my client sent a surprisingly pleasant email this morning to inquire about my progress — of which there had been virtually NONE at that point — I figured I’d better take the “slug” sign off my neck and do something constructive. To my astonishment I actually finished 75% of Shelly’s brochure and — even better — it looks pretty damn good.
According to a flyer taped to our front door today there’s a new Chinese restaurant in the area with FREE DELIVERY. This would be fabulous news if they didn’t already have a substantial number of crappy online reviews and weird non-Asian menu items like Philly cheese steak egg rolls, Buffalo chicken nuggets and French fries. Other than that I’d probably give them a shot but NOT in the foreseeable future since I’ve got two dozen cans of fake meat in the pantry. As soon as I finish this post I want a can of Loma Linda “Swiss Stake” for dinner with a bag of Schwan’s mixed vegetables and real pie for dessert. (As far as I know there’s no such thing as fake pie.)
For the record, Loma Linda “Swiss Stake” is made of soy protein, rolled oats, egg whites, nonfat dry milk, wheat flour and a variety of tasty spices and chemicals formed to look like Alpo patties.
Thank you for reading this. I might be back later if there’s nothing exciting on TV.
