Okay. You know. Just. Okay.

So, today Vela shows Jason what we did yesterday and he's all, "No, no, not all that. Just give them what we had already and leave blanks where we don't have history."

So, you know, basically five hours of my time and nine hours of her time wasted.

I'm not going to bitch at her about it because I have the same tendency to try and do a thorough job of whatever I'm given, but still. I was driven to the point of a meltdown yesterday for no real reason.

MadBoy is back--or at least he's got his offspring sitting on my doorstep. After telling the world that the offspring had taken a class and they were now going to run their marketing campaign themselves, and be phenomenally successful in ten minutes a day? Well, three weeks after that, they're in my email and on my voicemail whining for help because their campaign isn't working.

And still, you know, stupid. Today they wanted access to their website stats. Because their campaign is broken. (If your campaign is broken, you need to fix your campaign. Looking at your traffic numbers won't do that.)

Another far-flung 'Nut came out of the woodwork two weeks ago and wanted to talk about how everyone around him is a thief and he's being robbed of his legitimate leads. And he wanted a stand-alone campaign. We've only tried that one time and it was a dismal failure. But, okay, you know, I'm all about doing what They say to do and not what needs to be done, so I tell him to let me know what he wants in the new campaign. And I send him all the data from the old campaign so he has a list to choose from and knows what works. And he sends back an email that he's bought a book and he's studying hard and he's about to be an expert.

*headbang* That's just what I need. One more freaking "expert" to deal with.

I'm so tired.
