Bwah?

What happened to last week? I suppose I did take Thursday and Friday off (Thursday planned, Friday unplanned) so maybe that's part of it. Maybe I'm just losing time again.

Thursday went to Guthrie props and warehouse to pick up stuff for the Penumbra show. I heart the Guthrie props department. I could live in that prop room. New goal for me is to get hired on in the props department at the Guthrie. I wish I was joking about how much I loved it there.

We got tons of cool stuff for The Whipping Man, so that's awesome. Friday I woke up feeling achy and just new I was going to get sick, so I stayed home and slept a lot. Not enough, I'm still tired (or maybe the weekend took it out of me), but I haven't gotten full blown sick, so that's good.

Saturday I spent working on The Whipping Man. I recovered a chaise and it looks awesome, though I say so myself. I was really nervous I would mess it up, but for a piece of stage furniture, it's very well done. That took up most of my work time. I then headed home and decided to skip the birthday party Justin was going to and go out with the girls instead. We went to dinner and then saw "He's Just Not That Into You..." which was pretty good. Some parts were better then others, and I wish they had ended it a bit differently, but overall a good evening.

Sunday I headed back to Penumbra and finished up the chaise. I also brought in some pillows I recovered and some canvas bags I made. I enjoy feeling productive and handy. I also got to find out where to buy lamb shank, not that I hope to ever need that information again. From there I headed over to Park Square to see Jekyll and Hyde with Justin. He then headed out to meet up with a friend and I had the unenviable task of striking props and set dressing. So many beakers to rinse out! But I got all the props out of the theater, and will go back next weekend to clean up the prop shop and find homes for all those beakers. Finished up the evening with a bit of grocery shopping and some chinese food for dinner.

Not a bad weekend overall, just overly full. Two tech weeks is too many, even if I don't have to worry about getting over to Penumbra at all. I'm hoping to focus on Caligula, and getting that up on it's feet. Very excited about the first night of tech. Just wish I wasn't so tired.

The next week is going to be busy, but after that I get some free time again. I'm very glad to not have any shows until Robots starts up in May. Getting to head home and have my evenings free will be a welcome change.
