Current Mood:  good
It's official. I may be functional, but I am still an easily-tired wuss.
Had a damn fine time this weekend, though I didn't catch as many of my friends' shows as I meant to. Much work, much sun, much chaos, much fun.
Managed to swing by the hospital Friday night on the way out to fest and see sybildiscontent and the lovely new Kieran. Our timing was a little off as we hit during the little guy's "dinner rush." Stayed briefly so as not to distract from the breasts at hand... I mean, moobs. I mean, at the time that whole eating thing was still a project. Hopefully the process has become easier at this point and the moobs have doubled in size again with the good stuff. Little guy's pretty hungry and has the best spot in town. Just sayin'. Much love to the proud parents who are pretty damn adorable and all.
Friday night at fest was awesome and full of silliness. This included me actually drinking, many good friends, and a drunken run to the gas station. Ry sober cabbed there and back, fat ankles and all. Even the gas station guy got in on it, saying over the loud speakers that there was "an attitude at the front register." I blame Becky. ;-)
Spent most of the festival weekend working on the stocks, showing the folks a few ways to start pulling people onto the stage with some regularity. Had a great time and am very excited to watch how this show grows over the season.
From what I understand, I am very very glad I was there to work and skipped cast call where I would have been forced to listen to even more crap about how put upon management is. Amazes me how they can fire people without prior notice and then think they're the ones who have it rough. Hello professionalism! *jazz hands*
Looks as though the direction of the place continues to be filled with ruthless expendability and lectures on how you should take it and like it. What a crock of crap.
That said, my lovely friends are still lovely, there are some great shows happening and much love and luck to you all!
As for me, I personally learned that even if the place were run by competence, I could not possibly make it seven weekends with a full time job yet. I may have finally gotten some stamina back, but I do not have that much in me right about now. And by Sunday, I was beyond pathetic. And I only worked a half shift that day! I feel for the rest of the cast who does that crap melting away in the sun everyday. Y'all are badasses.
Back at work, which is filled with it's own sorts of silliness. Plus, Pa K gets out of the hospital today which will be a great relief to his boredom.
Wonder what September will be like. August was totally killer. |
