hello, 3-day weekend — i’ve been waitin’ for ya!

May 26, 2023

The unveiling of the Crothersville FFA brick wall was this evening at the school. The goal was to sell 100 bricks, but they ended up selling over 150 small bricks and 150 large ones. I made sure Mom & Scott were both represented (big bricks for big deals, right?), and it’s something that should be there a very, very long time. 🙂

At 4:33 PM, one of my problem speakers tried to ruin the holiday for me, but no!

Funny… the speaker that was chomping at the bit to move things forward was the last one to get a contract to me for review. She told me on the phone how simple her agreements are – 2 pages. Turns out, it was 4 pages and requires the client to initial 12 times before signing.

To make matters worse, the client’s name was filled in wrong and two portions of the legal verbiage directly contradicted one another. Oh… and the signed contract has to be turned in by Tuesday after the holiday. I’m really close to putting a big red mark through her name and move on to someone else.

Work is over until Tuesday — I’ll worry about stupid people then, but not now.

Happy that we’re about to launch a 3-day weekend… Memorial Day is here. Pool water was 74 degrees when I checked earlier this afternoon. Still pretty cold to get in, but things are looking up just a bit.

TIL (Today I Learned): The Aerosmith song Walk This Way was inspired by the “walk this way” joke from Young Frankenstein.
