Meeting
August 4th, 2005 byOk, so I had an excellent meeting yesterday morning. The last 48 hours have sort of been a blur with work and the house and all that crap, and I couldn’t sleep for shit the night before because my kitten decided to play shredding machine on my ear. I wasn’t in tip-top shape for this meeting. I was exhausted, but shaven and clean. Which is good because there’s nothing worse than a stinky and groggy contractor coming into your office trying to partner up on a project.
Anyway… Out of weird coincidence this meeting was all about the stuff I was talking about yesterday. The folks I met with were potential customers, not clients. Clients make you work, customers pay you for work you’ve already done with the hope that you would eventually get paid for it. You know, work I did because I wanted to and because I loved it rather than work I did because I was just getting paid. So yeah… the meeting was photography related and fun and made me feel so optimistic. I feel like I’ve very quickly taken a fast step back towards the direction I want to focus my life. Photography. It’s not a huge thing. It’s not going to let me retire or anything, but it’s something. And something is better than nothing. Makes me smile.
Ok, to bed.
