this sums up my year

today.

12:11: phone rings
uber-producer: ‘where are you, are you available for a music vid? (gives me details, regular supervisor is busy and they want me to cover) and what’s your rate?’
me: ‘i’m up in sf. yeah i’m available, my rate is $XXXX’
uber-producer: ‘cool, i’ll get back to you.’

13:15: cel rings
uber-producer: ‘come on down, we’ll get your tickets and we’ll see you tomorrow.’

13:34: cel rings
co-ordinator: ‘here’s your itinerary i’m emailing and faxing to you now. see ya.’
me: ‘thanks, see you tomorrow.’

14:00: i do all my emails/calls to let people know i’m in town, make plans. start laundry.

14:17: cel rings
executive producer: (apologetic) ‘i’m afraid we don’t need you anymore… maybe next time’
me: ‘uh… ok, thanks.’

i should clarify, it’s not like this ‘you’re on/you’re off’ thing has been happening all year. the feeling i get after i hang up the phone has been with me all year. oh well.

so, knowing it’s not a school night anymore, i go out and drink… a lot. i also bring my camera and take some pics.
