Here are the final 8 Pictures I promised awhile back.

Archive for the Blogroll CategoryWell, I have been sick for the past few days. Also, my internet was down for about 4 days. The internet problem was quite stupid, it was accidentally disconnected from the electric pole. Those Fucking Bastards. What a waste of 4 days without internet. Anyway, I am feeling mostly better today but still have the left overs from whatever I had. I work every day through Friday. Saturday and Sunday I have off. It is going to be a busy one with it being Thanksgiving week and me working at a grocery store. Yeah, imagine that. *shrug* Not that it was good for my cold/flu/fever/whatever that I had, but two evenings ago after I got off of work, instead of going to bed right away which I should have done, I bundled up, and walked to a specific spot to write. I haven’t done that in quite some time. However, as cold as it was, it was worth it. Having thoughts flowing through my head and not getting them out either on paper or talking to someone really starts to clog up my thinking. I get irritable and pissed off easily. I am already stressed on top of it. I wrote a lot. My hands were freezing towards the end but I kept going. When I write, for the most part I don’t stop to really think about how I am writing; I just write and get it out on paper. Plus, the first things I think of and then write them down is most likely how I view that subject, the real truth about things in my mind. It was a clear night as well. While walking to the spot to write, I was looking up at all the stars. One of the first things I saw was the little dipper. Yay. There were lots of stars out. More nights like that to come. Well, I just did my first solo Directing for Willow Creek DuPage. It went quite well. At first I was confident. I though: “Hey, this is easy. You have done it before at TCD. How different could it be?” Then the time crunch started leaning on me. I really wish I would have brough my book that I write in to Germany. I had a bunch of things to write in there. I ended up writing some of them in a binder but it isn’t safe there. I think I need to spend some time and write in it again…very very very soon. Getting stuff out of my head would be good, even if no one listens. I did have a LOT of fun in Germany, especially towards the end of the week and at night. Having someone hang out with me ment a lot to me. :-) Adrenaline pumping, exhausted, tired, eyes bloodshot…yeah…that is me for the past 3 days including today. Two more days of this as well. I am so tired. In the past 3 days I have only got 5 hours of sleep each day (give or take). And the day before that it was 6 hours of sleep. Other than that, the other 19 hours has been setting stuff up: lifting, tightening, taping, aiming, pulling, pushing, analizing, etc. This is the first time that I have really had time to get onto my computer, let alone the internet. I don’t think I will have pictures up anytime ON the trip, but when I get back, I will put some up. Ugg…complaining again: my feet hurt, arms and leg muscles ach. That feeling you get in your gums after flossing….yeah that too. I tried calling two friends from work while here but I haven’t gotten to talk to either of them really. :-( dissapointing….I wanted to talk to someone I have known for longer than 3 days. I will try again tomorrow morning…which is abour 10pm Chicago time. Until then… FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT LAWN MOWER!!!! I was trying to start my lawn mower for over 2 hours in the cold today: never started. I did manage to dent multiple things in the process though, and take nails out of wood next to the fire pit. I am very aggravated to the point of bad things happening. If I don’t type it out here, I will take it out on something else that I shouldn’t. I hope no one tries to talk to me for the next few hours. In other news, Germany on Saturday. I still have to pack, and buy a few things. I need to update my iPod as well and am having a hard time making playlists. I am so used to just playing albums all the way through. *shrug* The playing cards were on my desk this evening when I came home. How though? I don’t remember moving them from where I put them about a little over a year ago. I need to put them somewhere…safe. yeah. Bed now I guess…hopefully. Okay, well it still sorta stands. Tonight there will be about 9 people or so showing up from the cast to try and perform parts. No props or anything will be used. I gave them my lighting stuff to use because 2 people will be there doing lights, one being a lighting crew member. Again, most people don’t know, don’t understand, or can’t understand what all the drama/info/behind the scenes opinions and such are all about so it doesn’t make sense to people. It is just going to be really interesting I think. I think a lot is all drama. I feel rocky horror is fun. Yeah, there is a hard core cast behind a lot of it, but when it gets to the point that it isn’t even fun anymore (even if it is work), I am not going to try and cause all this drama, headach, and stress over it. No I won’t give it up completely, but I sure as hell won’t try and fight with some other management about it. We have been to other theatres before, why think that this will be the last? We will find another. Simple as that. On a side note…..Biger is snugglie. :-D Well, to make it brief because it is late, but I sorta promised to put something up before bed. There is no more rocky horror at the Hollywood Blvd. theatre. New BS rules from the owner (childish ones) forced us to either beg at their feet and take what we could get, or make somewhat of a stand and leave. I guess THAT sort of sounds childish too but if you know more of the specifics you might change your mind. Again I can explain more in detail, not now though. It doesn’t seem like people read this shit. Maybe they will now though. Hah (I try too hard, while trying towards cyberspace. Talking to a brick wall even.) Have to be at Jessie’s at 8am to unload my truck of Rocky lighting equipment. Work then at 11am. It is 3:13am. SLEEEEPPPP!!! yeah yeah, I know. The picture page thing isn’t working properly. I need to either find a better gallery, or just not put them in there. I will do something after my midterm on Friday. Shit be going down for rocky horror, dunno what is going to happen yet though. Won’t know till after the Friday night show. Germany in a week and 3 days. I am not ready, stressed from work/school, and never get enough sleep anymore. I’m bitching, I’m bitching, I’m bitching….yes I know, fully aware (or maybe just complaining). Stuff always works out in the end doesn’t it…or at least it passes by. –> School |
It was 6pm and we had not finished sound check. It was all the stupid small things that were holding us back, along with 3 people trying to figure audio problems out. It was really stressing out the audio guy. Anyway, once we started the service, it was all down hill from there. (and I mean that in a good way, the “Hey, I don’t have to peddle my bike anymore” way) Everything went quite smooth, so smooth that while looking in my backpack, I saw I had Biger with me, and started taking pictures of him “running the show.”
