Many moons ago, Dr. J, (the vet where I work) decided as a birthday present to herself, she would NEVER work another Wednesday again.

And to today it stands...so there are only at any given point 2 people max at the office. Well, the lady the works behind the desk. Sharon, had shoulder surgery a few weeks ago and so I have to go in early because she can't be alone, (although she was doing fine and picking her dog up did not seem to be a problem...)

Anyway, because of this last week and today I have to go in 2 hours early... (memorizing line time I guess?) Well, it kinda sucks...cuz I loose those 2 hours...but what sucks even more is that I have to be down at the theatre by 5:15-30 ish.... so we can hang the curtains....

When we did the strike for Laughing Wild we took the curtains down, but did not put them away because Dennis, the Crucible director wanted them back up....

Now, the problem is, is that the director wants them so far back that we have to put in more hooks to hold the curtain bars because they have never been put back that far....and that is not so bad except we have to be to the ceiling on ladders, and I am the next in line...Mike and then me because Elicia is short and the director would either fall or break the ladder...

AND it's hotter than heck that high up....

So, not only do we have to put in hooks to hold the bars, we have to more the bars...and those ARE NOT light bars... and THEN to put the icing on the cake we have put the curtains back up on the rods....and these are heavy suckers too! There are big heavy chains in the bottom of these curtains to make sure they stay on the floor... and we don't just get to lift and hook them on..Noooo see THAT would be WAY too easy....
Not only do we have to hook each indiviadual curtain hook on, but we have to tie them so they don't fall off...

Elicia said to be there by about 5:30...(We all get off at 5...gee, straight home...I mean...to the theatre)....and there is only Elicia, Mike, me and Dennis.... ugh....

Even though I will probably get hot and kinda sweaty I would still like a shower BEFORE I go so it's not double bad...it's already going to be bad because I have been outside in the heat working with dogs for the last 5 hours....maybe I can ask to leave a few minutes early?

If I get home by 5 I can shower and leave by....5:20? That would be nice...

WOULD BE being the opprative term(s)....

Yah-know...I still REALLY don't wanna wear a fat suit... It's gonna suck.... I'm already being called a sea cow....

And Mike...if he says anything...else...about me and E 'crossing over' I swear I am gonna push him off that ladder and BREAK his pinky that he slammed in the door and didn't break...

And if eating and breathing theatre is not bad enough, I had this horrible dream about Radio TBS that I won't even get into...but it resulted in being unprepeared on account of no communicatoin and I QUIT.
