Gah, almost got into a fight with a client today. His son brought in the dog last week, and didn't have any money. So we kept the Heartgard, and told him that when the bill was paid, that he could come in and get it.
Well, today Dad came in with $40, the bill was $100. He wanted to take just the Heartgard, and send is a check later for the remaining $60. I told him no, and that once the entire bill was paid, he could have the meds. He didn't like that, and tried to grab the Heartgard from me. By this time he was yelling at me.
I told him to deal with it, and if he didn't like it, he could wait til a doctor arrived and argue with him about it, and that he wasn't getting anything until he gave me $100.
He opened up on me about how he's on a fixed income, and that his dog needs this because he lives in the woods. He said he's been coming here for a long time and that he shouldn't be treated like this.
Once the doctor came and told him that he wasn't getting the meds until after the bill was paid, and credit card magically appeared and paid the bill.
Gah, I hate these dirt bags that think they can walk all over us just because they say they'll mail us a check. Its not our problem if you don't have the money. If you can't afford to pay the pet's bills, then you shouldn't have one.

Anyway,
Speaking of that picture.
Anyone wanna play iSpy?
I spy, with my little eye.....a DEAD PIXEL IN THAT PICTURE!
Tiny and blue, oh where are you?
If anyone wants to find it I would be AMAZED.
LOL.
Should I exchange my camera because of this dead pixel?
There are some on the screen too, not a lot, one or two.
And sometimes it doesn't seem to focus.

My Reeds finally arrived! Yayyy! I've been using the same three reeds for about two months, and they have been pretty much used up two weeks ago. It's been tough.

Why not just get a plastic reed for practice and then a regular reed for performances? Thats what I used to do for clarinet. I really need to get back into that...
