What does it take to answer an e-mail? For weeks I've queried a client who has promised an assignment. He keeps answering that he'll get back to me. I've let it go for a few weeks now, thinking he just needs time.

Several times this week though I sent e-mails asking what's up with the assignment. No answer. Today I lost my patience and sent a note to his superior, asking what's up. Within five minutes, I get a pissed off reply from the guy that he's "not avoiding" me just still trying to "get his ducks together" and he doesn't want to "waste anyone's time."

Is this guy a jerk, or am I? What would you do?

I mean, what does it take to answer a simple e-mail and say, Sorry, I'm not ready to tell you anything yet.

He also makes promises to call me "next week" and never does.

I just tuned my guitar to
DDD#EGG(LOW TO HIGH)

First note is an octave and a whole step down.
Second note is down a whole step.
Third note is down 11 steps.
Fourth note is an octave below standard high E.
Last two notes are the same as standard G

and it's really fun.
Though I may change it a bit, making it a little more standard.

I figured out today I have a really serious sleeping disorder.

At staying up for more than 20 hours straight I found that I couldn't keep my eyes shut for longer than 3 seconds.
And now with staying up for more than 48 hours with 4 hours of sleep...
So I'm gonna go see a shrink to see if he'll give me sleeping meds.

tc - I hope that you get that sleeping thing sorted out - insomnia is a killer.

terriblecanyons · 09.19.2008, 06:18 PM

Here's to hoping the bill won't be too big if I do go to a shrink.

The grand total of the foot issue is about $1000.

Jesus H thingy - ouch!

Irrelevance - life is OK now, but something makes me feel, um, well....

terriblecanyons · 09.19.2008, 06:22 PM

It's expensive to break your foot nowadays I guess.

PM me Melly, so you can elaborate.

Took sleeping meds last night to get to sleep.
Now I feel like a zombie.

Is it irrelevant to ask how long this board was down ?

I couldnt get on last night...was it down long or just my server ?

MellySingsDoom · 09.20.2008, 10:31 AM

reginald - I couldn't get on either. Maybe Mr Habib's been knocking back the cooking sherry again, and fell over the server in a drunken stupor...

PAULYBEE2656 · 09.20.2008, 10:32 AM

Well, I'm glad his hangover wasn't so bad he couldn't get it back online !

Thanks for confirming.
