BACK-BLOG August 2, 2001 It’s 12:06am on my watch. It’s 11:55pm on my computer clock. And I’m wondering if it’s already safe to go online. I wonder how much damage the Code Red virus has done. I haven’t gone online today. I fear that will experience withdrawal symptoms soon. I was doing my timesheet yesterday and calculated that for the month of July, I spent 220 hours working on this . Today is the formal, public, blah blah launch( and even Mark was dragged on it. God, I hope all that… that… work is worth it. I wonder what people think about it. I wonder what the competition thinks about it. And there are times during the day when I just don’t care about what my wonderful client has to say and just wish I can get to work on B72.

Signs that it is a Monday. I get to work in good minute (less than 20minutes) only to find that some moron had taken my parking space. I get to my desk to find three J.R.’s (job requests). Then one of the A.D.s tells me that the AE’s are looking for an additional study that would make the ad look exactly like what my C.D. doesn’t want them to look like! Yup, it’s a Monday.
