Well now I have to sound smart in my blogs. haha
The show I'm working on opened up tonight (HMS Pinafore). It is the first show that I really haven't had to do a whole lot on. It is a very wierd feeling. I feel so not in control. I'm not the one calling cues or anything. I just chill backstage in case there are sound problems, put on mics, and pull the curtain (which is a great workout by the way). It is wierd. So I have decided I need to take a book or a laptop or something with me to do during the show. Speaking of laptops, I'll give you all my Christmas list now.
Gift Certificates to:
-Hollister
-American Eagle
-Gap
-Mall Money
-Any fast food restaraunt (haha)
-Media Play
-Any gas station
-Target
A laptop computer
An Ipod (or something like it)
A digital camera
MONEY!!!
So in case you didn't notice, I really need new clothes (preferably ones I can wear in the winter since I have none of those... oh I need new shoes too... I can't really wear flip flops in the snow) and money. haha And gas money. If you would like you can just buy me a new car and that will save me gas! haha I should probably come up with a cheaper list...or maybe a more expensive one. I need an apartment... a trip to Europe would be nice. haha Anything you want to give me that is not on the list needs to be pre approved and include a receipt. hahah jk (sorta)
So this week is basically my catch up week. I took two days off work to try and get caught up in all my classes. Hopefully I'll use it. I'm way to social for my own good!!
Ok so here is my funny story for the day. Maybe it will just be funny to me...
So I was at the SCERA getting ready for the show and I had some time before I needed to start putting mics on people. So I decided to change into my blacks. So I go into the kitchen (those of you that don't know the Scera, they have a mini kitchen backstage that doubles as a dressing room.) and I lock the door (oh there are two doors too, one on either side of the room. One is always locked and the other is the door that is used, it has a lock on it as well.). Well I am in the process of changing (so basically I'm half naked) when all of a sudden the door that is supposedly
locked all the time flys open. Standing there is like this 60 year old man in the show (pretty much everyone in the show is elderly). Now normally I have no problem with things like this. Heck I can change in the middle of a packed room and be fine with it (those of you who know me well know this). Heck I change in the car all the time. It was just wierd I guess cause it was incredibly unexpected and there was a reason I was in the kitchen in the first place. As soon as the door opened I was like "Whoa don't come in!" But well he stood there looking at me for like 5 minutes with the door wide open. And I am not exagerating this, it really was like 5 minutes. I think that is why I had a problem with it. This old man staring at me. Ugh. So that was my interesting story for the night. Some of those old guys are way WAY to touchy feely. It is extremely wierd cause they are old!! And then when I put on mics I blow on the backs of their necks to dry the alcohol, and they all love that and vocalize it quite often. haha I am starting to think maybe I should stop that practice. Too bad they aren't a bunch of young hotties ;) haha
Well anyways that is all I have to say for the night! Hope everything is going good with everyone!
