Lack of Sleep?

So I've been pretty busy of late with a few different projects going on at once... It adds up to a lack of sleep, that while normal, isn't ever fun, and it gets worse as I get a tad older each year... We shipped out a project today, and honestly, it seemed ok to me... Not perfect by any means, but then the client had specified cheap materials to use, so I didn't have the highest expectations to begin with... Well a few hours later, I got a rather angry phone call while I was driving around picking up some equipment for the next show... The guy was spouting invective all over the place at me, which is generally about the worst way to approach a problem with me, but hey, I was in a decent mood, so I didn't snap back... The guy claims there are huge areas that weren't stained on the scenery... As I said, I shipped this stuff out today myself, and I've been walking through a maze of it on the way to my office for a couple days... I think I'd have noticed large un-stained areas, but I'm willing to allow that I'm looseing my mind... So the scenery is coming back to me tommorow for re-finishing... To be honest, I suspect that what this guy is trying to pull is to get a darker stain on the scenery without paying for it, but again, we'll see when it gets back to me tommorow... If that's the case, he's going to get a lesson in invective... He doesn't represent a client that I'd worry about looseing in the least...

Stay tuned... This will get another post to be sure...
