Wanting to Scream

I am frustrated and at my complete wits end with the internship I am doing in designing a website for a client. We have been working on this since August and do you think I have one sentence of content for the site the client HAD to have?!? I could cry. I could scream. I just don't get why people want websites and then it is like suddenly too much work and that's just that. Hello!?! WTF do you think goes into designing and programming the site? Do you really think that writing a few paragraphs for a few pages is hard? You are the one that wanted this site - I would hope you had the content in mind months ago. The worst part is I am trying to stay professional in this matter. I sent the client a time line WEEKS ago. Has anything on that time line been met deadline wise? Heck no, at least not in the client's world. The due date is December 15. I just sent the most friendly, professional email I could muster asking for EVERYTHING by December 13. Why do I have this sickening feeling that I'll be up late late Sunday night putting this all together. I am sure then she'll have a nit pick or two in the design as well. Too bad. My "professional" email included that there will be NO design changes. And that will be absolute.

I love designing sites. I love figuring out the code and putting it together and playing with the CSS to make the page come alive. I've been working on my own professional portfolio one for about two days now and its almost done... content and all...
