I was rather proud of myself for making a Nozzles / Ayers Rock / Koalawalla Land reference .. then disheartened that no one got it.

BossMan swings by to have me load the latest test android file onto the Nexus 7.. then stops and asks me ("in general terms") 'how do I load up an app.. you know.. I guess I should probably learn how'.. ah.. what? Am I reading too far into this about being kicked to the curb tomorrow or is this some sort of hint?!

Eeesh.. I need more sleep and maybe dial back the per-cursor panic attacks.

I put an update out yesterday.. aaaaaaaaaaand forgot to flip off the testing option. Which means it hasn't ran (fully) since mid to late afternoon yesterday. Of course this is realized by a high profile client (this morning) and all sorts of hell is breaking loose.

I had to look BossDad and BossMom in the eye and explain I fucked up.. hardcore.

BM is on the phone right now.. keeping it vague, technical, and apologetic. I wouldn't be overly surprised if this becomes a term.-able offense.

Fuck.

Me.

After spending MORE time this weekend sketching out some ideas (*MY* ideas) for how to incorporate this acronym into my existing poster they were all, once again, rejected in favor of doing this banner things. Grrrr... I get it.. You really really really want to encourage me to believe a banner was my idea and my addition, but it's not. Treasure chests, engraved rocks, hot air balloons, etc were my idea.. and the instance of using _their_ idea is making me want to push back more against it.

*deep breath* let's not have a art-teeest temper tantrum... not today.. not at work.. about work.. to work.

Highlights:

- It was a tamer show than expected.

- horrible hotel
-- door won't close (missing hinge screws)
-- wallpaper coming up at the seems
-- google fiber construction
-- elevator wouldn't go down

- yellow cab - 45 minute wait. .sucked.

- flying saucer - cool.. Many beers and brautzels.
- Manifesto was a nice idea.. a solid (but expensive) cocktail bar - cool.. dark..

-punk hair girls shoot angle grinder sparks at each other on our stumble to Manifesto.. at some place called 'Czar'

- west port.. happen'n... fo' shizzile. Will need to do again.

- The last Boulevard beer tour as an American/KC owned company..
- jack stack lunch -> must do again.
- no rootbeer milk.. poop.

This poster thing is getting out of hand. I am not digging the suggestions (or maybe I am not digging the fact I am being pushed suggestions) on changes to tighten down the theme. Yes.. I think I am working up a whiny/ar-teest snit.

FFS folks..

They even rejected my idea of having a kid in a dirt bike caught, mid air, in a sweet jump with the program name on the banner behind it! Grrrrrrrrrr



In other news - mailing surprise things to people is hilarious in its own right.
