Disappointing

And the client drama continues...

Today I got a call for kind of a dream project. The catch is that it requires me to work out of my client's office for a couple of days. The even bigger catch is that those days are tomorrow and Friday, and Geoff is working a night shift tonight and a day shift on Friday. And in case you've been missing from my blog for the last year or two, I HAVE A BABY.

I've spent a good part of the last hour in tears. I understand that being a parent sometimes means sacrifice. But this one really, really hurts. This project is something I have ALWAYS wanted to do, and I've never had an opportunity before. It probably sounds stupid, but I feel a little bit heartbroken.

So I've said NO to tomorrow morning and YES to the afternoon - Geoff is willing to forfeit sleep to help make this happen for me (just one of *so* many reasons why I love him). It's better than nothing. But I'm at a total loss for Friday. Katie and my mom are both working, and this is one of those times when it sucks to have all your family out of town (actually, out of province). I haven't said no yet because I keep hoping that I'll have a flash of genius and figure out something...
