The Daily Whine List

What is generally running around unfettered in my cranium. Or the struggles of a sometimes manic-depressive Buddhist. That's Captain Sarcastic to you.

Apparently I am sending myself emails about the fact I am a complete fat-ass. I use Yahoo for my email and I usually go thru the bulk mail to see if any forward from friends got mis-filed there. I noticed my email address in the sender column. It seems that I am promising myself that I can lose 50 pounds if I send money away to some address. I really hadn't noticed my other personalities becoming so entrepenurial. I just hope I get my share of the profits.

I have been up to my eyelids in a video project I am editing, in lieu of my friend being incarcerated. When this situation first went down, it became obvious that this client was "in the pipeline" and would need to be finished regardless of my friend's legal misfortune. The guys who are handling the businees now agreed to pay me for 1-1 1/2 weeks worth of editing. They mentioned $800 and I agreed. We are now at the 2 1/2 week mark and I have been putting in 12-13 hours a day. Since our agreement, they have vasilated on the price, explaining that their costs have gone up. I have stated tht I didn't agree to this for "whatever was left in the food-dish". Fortunately for me, the client loves my work and is petitioning with my friend's parents to pay me what I am worth. When I talked with my friend in prison, he mentioned I should recieve all of the budget ($1500) for handling this situation.

Self-worth. Who knew?
