Shane and I did a low key 4th. We found a path to the Parsippany Fireworks. First Video below - of course I was trying a walk & record (without tripping that is), the night eye on the camera is not great (I didn't think it would be), but these are all things I need to find out. P.S. that is the back of Shane's head and him telling me to watch my step.
Next, we set up our chairs and had a very nice view, some video below. I noticed on the video that after a small span of time when there was just black "air" the cameras eye was searching, so when the fireworks started back up again, they were fuzzy. What a nice night. Easy in Easy out.
I know it is & was the lead-in and following week for the 4th but WOW! The work week has been slow. By that I mean, I've been faced with tepid responses for screenings, or people were just not in. I don't know if everyone is irritated by the warm weather, but people are not receptive.
My client and I have worked a lot out, and now seem to be on a good working path. Now, I just have to make the marketing plan work. More on that later.

Faith Restored.
My faith is renewed in people this week.
I went to my friend's 40th birthday girls night out dinner last week. I've known this person since I started working in NYC full-time back in 1992 - or was is '93? Crazy to think back to a time that seems like a lifetime ago - especially since it was when my professional life really began.
My friend had left her wedding & engagement ring on the shelf in a YMCA while she was getting ready to come to her party. She had just cleaned them and didn't want to get any hair product on them. Luckily (or so we thought), her Mom and daughter were still at the Y, so she called earnestly to have her Mom go get it.
It was gone. It wasn't at the front desk, it wasn't in the ladies room.... We were all astounded that someone would have walked off with such valuables - even in this economy, is nothing sacred? Despite this news, we had a lot of laughs at the dinner party.
When I got home I received a call telling me a woman had found the rings and they were returned - WHEW! My faith restored that people really will do the right thing in the end.
