MAJOR happy dance!
Oh boy! I had the BEST meeting this morning with a former client! They are giving me the largest project they've ever given me since I've been working freelance with them! This client was my one and only client when I worked fulltime as a designer for someone else.
But the best part? Just as I was coming, my ex-coworker was leaving. He waved as we passed by each other in our cars, then turned around. He of course had to find out what I'm up to these days. I told him I'm doing GREAT -- that I've started my own freelance design business and my artwork is taking off. Both are true! I gave him one of my freshly minted business cards and told him how w-o-n-d-e-r-f-u-l life is these days. He said "wow, you look great. You don't look tense or stressed. You look happy." I felt like saying "well I'm no longer tense or stressed because I'm no longer WORKING WITH YOU!!" But I said "Yup, I'm doing really well and I love working for myself." Gosh I wish I had the guts to tell him what I wanted to say! Do any of you remember me talking of this guy? He's one of the people I wanted to sue for harassment. I'll leave it at that. :mad:
All I can say is this: THANK GOD I got that haircut and new clothes this past week. I'd have hated to be wearing the same old matted hair and ratty twin set sweater. Instead I looked sleek in a new black 3/4 sleeve sweater, camel colored slacks, and golden colored pearls in my ears. I looked great - and it didn't hurt that I've lost about 15 pounds since he saw me last. They aren't kidding when they say "living well is the best revenge" :D
Anyone care to join me in my happy dance? I don't ever remember feeling this empowered! Now... if only I could run into my exboyfriends and rub my happiness in their faces!
-
I AM happy dancing right on with you! I remember the story you told us on this jerk and I am so glad you got to rub it in his face so that now he knows there is a BETTER life after HIM and how much better off you are.. RUB IT IN! RUB IT IN!!
GOOD GOING!! GO GIRL! GO!!!

[[garbage - cherry lips (go baby go)]]
"You could make grown men gasp
When you'd go walking past them
In your hot pants and high heels
They could not believe
That such a body was for real
It seemed like rainbows would appear
Whenever you came near, the clouds would disappear
Go Baby Go Go
We're right behind you
Go baby Go Go
Yeah we're looking at you
Go baby Go Go
Aw, we're right behind you!!!"
