Normally I do not do these, HOWEVER....
Apparently when a client says "I don't like to follow the pack" and "We'd like to do something completely different" and "You can do whatever you feel will perform best!" what they *really* mean is: "We want exactly what you did for us last time, something totally generic and ordinary." We're talking complaining and complaining about how we missed the mark and then saying "this is what we wanted" and showing us the piece we did for them last time. IF YOU KNEW EXACTLY WHAT YOU WANTED - THE SAME THING WE DID LAST TIME - DO NOT SAY YOU WANT SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT!
These words do not mean what they think they mean.

SO MUCH RANTING AND RAVING!!!
I'm also sad because I really *liked* what we did and I think it would have rocked. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.
I am so excited about my juicer, guys, you have no idea. I am checking the tracking like mad! I need to buy garlic and ginger! Of course, irony of sweet ironies, I'll be out of town for a week starting Wednesday - so I'll barely break it in. Lets hope I don't get too obsessive. I mean, the fact that I had dreams about vegetables last night doesn't mean anything, right?
I am so doomed.
OH! I watched the Pilot of Trust Me last week!
