Thanks for doing the signing! I can't imagine how stressful a book launch/tour can be.
I'll keep an eye out for your work in the Mothership module! They've been a really good source for artists to follow.

And weirder yet: the physical copies are still available.

So a movie I have been dithering on seeing landed on VOD, and after even more dithering (restoring some obliterated funds), I went to look how much a rental would be...
And it can't be found digitally. "Rights issue."
The film was released! In theaters! Little late for some lawyers to wake up.

Trying to wind down the night, mentally checklist everything going on in the upcoming week, and realizing there's a whole lotta unknowns barreling down at us.

Things have been so overcharged (three concurrent series hitting delivery phase) that when there's downtime I rapidly grow panicked.
Am I missing some critical email? Is my connection bad? Have my credentials been revoked? Did the series get cancelled with extreme prejudice? Just spiraling.

You'd think the new Tron film was just a NIN album visualiser in the way they try to cut around showing too much of him.

On the subway, I notice someone drop an item as they leave. I get off, pick it up, and return it thinking "I've got time before the screening, I'll catch the next one."
The next one was Delayed, until it was 1 minute away, then 11 minutes away, and then blew right past without stopping. Weird karma.

There's also this pitch thing, and they're going about it in the worst possible format.
It would be like someone spotted a band, wanted to record a demo with them, and instructed me to put individual chunks of isolated instruments onto 8-track cartridges so someone else could mix those together.

The work rhythm has been so out of whack this week (three shows for three networks) and now apparently the friday delivery isn't happening and I have no idea what's going to kick off.
