Today my fairyizing client called to find out what I drink, because two
of the big prints we worked on together were selected to hang at the PPO
(that's Professional Photographers of Ontario, a division of PPoC,
Professional Photographers of Canada) convention over the weekend, and
both scored over 80 in judging.  This is after I billed her hundreds of
dollars before the prints just for the work.

Good clients are worth the effort, bad clients really are not.  The hard
part is determining which they are.
