we love technology

you know how draggy email liaises can get often times? well.... it has been occurring far too much than desired for the past 2 months or so.... bad. it didn't help that too much has been going on in my life recently.

replied to the other parties involved in various email i had kinda lost count along the way the number of "i'll try!" "why not?" "maybe!" "okay!" "i'd love to!" i'veliaisons..... mostly littleoddforest work related.... which means.... commitments.... promises.... which means.... i HAVE TO do it even if it means i DIE. hah, okay that's exaggeration. but you get the drift. i had put waaayyyyy tooooo mucchhhhh "food" on my platter..... and if only it was just food, i could just put it away, albeit with more than a tinge of guilt, thinking of people suffering from hunger elsewhere, or as i usually do, push it to the unfortunate person eating with moi. but i couldn't live with myself if i had to push away chances of doing up special projects, or fun and cool custom orders i'd love so much to do (super important, as 99% of the time i'll nicely decline requests that i'm not into...) or even just simply because i like that person or for some silly reason blah blah blah..... i can be such an enthusiastic work globbler..... pppfftttt....

so, unknowingly, in just these couple of months, i said yes to more than 9 varying custom requests. and the screwy thing about email is, sometimes, somehow, we'll either not have the chance to reply asap, or just kinda felt that we needed that extra time to take to reply, or for whatever other million and one reasons etc.

and so the dragginess of emailing to and fro goes on..... and then, as funny things occur in this world, every single one of peeps (well, except 2) replied with their confirmation around the same time. just a few days apart. sheesh. thanks ya all. i had SOME weeks to complete MANY requests... fun.

ha okay okay, granted i still had fun and enjoyed every part of doing up all of the special requests!! cross my heart. and plus it's not like they were done for free.... i got paid. so what's there not to love?? ;p

i hope everyone was and will be (for those enroute or still not started on.....bleurghh) delighted with their custom orders! they'd better... ha..

now, if only i could push myself to go on and conquer those ninety bazillion other emails that elsie, my part-time customer service slave, can't help me with....*cry*
