What's new?

Still busy with the play, but only until the 31st. Saturday brings the last performance, striking the set and the wrap party. Whatever shall I do with my evenings then? Well, I've started drawing again (yay!) Also, I've been teaching myself to knit, so I think it's time to start a harder project than the scarf I started out with. Maybe a hat?...

Thanks for the birthday cheer. Much appreciated. smile

Those cupcakes are pretty darn nifty, too.

I've been busy these past few weeks! I've had plenty of model bookings at the art college to keep me busy, plus I'm still teching Scorpio's latest show.

I usually get home from the show at around 11:30 PM if I don't go out with the theatre folk afterwards. When I do arrive home, I'm weary but not really ready for sleep. I tend to...

thanks sweetheart.

Good luck with the hockey!
freakpirate:
Aww... sorry you'll be missing the show. frown

Have a good time at the play. I'm sure it'll be a blast.
Talk to you later

Bleh, I'm sick. I hardly ever get sick and I can't remember the last time I had a cold. Perfect timing too, considering that I have to be out every night running the lights for a play.

So I'll be spending the afternoon camped out on the couch and resisting the urge to dye my hair pink.
Not so much sleep to be had when...

did you resist the urge?! Wait another week or two and then you'll be fresh and pink and shiny for our visit. wink

Hope you're feeling better soon!!
freakpirate:
I saw a green Bug today. It was not yours. There was disappointment.

I already knew that a large number of my favorite songs mentioned sleep in some way. Maybe because, in the right circumstances, sleep is just so perfect. Not when I'm over exhausted, but when a languorous feeling comes over me. In a chilly room with a heavy blanket. And if I'm not alone, curled up next to someone. Arms thrown across each other. Our foreheads...

who needs sleep? (well, you're never going to get it)
who needs sleep? (tell me, what's that for?)

i hear your show was smashing! congrats.
danny_g:
Cold is trying to bring me down. Must manage three hours of brilliance later tonight. Still capable of writing coherent thoughts. On the other hand, not currently dealing with large shipment of comic books, so I've got that going for me...

I told Sean I'd go and it should prove amusing, so I'll go. If people can't make it, it's no big deal. I mean, it'll reaffirm my belief that it isn't worth the trouble of organizing things, but I'm pretty solidly sold on that as it is, so no big deal.
surlymike:
I lament that I won't be able to see this production when I'm in Calgary---but you could probably wear that to the Flames game. biggrin

I'm in a weird place right now. Mentally, not physically, although it would be funny if I now went on to tell you about how I'm sitting in an abandoned mental institution with my computer, a peanut butter sandwich and a pitcher of cherry kool-aid.

This past week...
I spent days in anticipation.
I drove to Edmonton to visit some friends. I sing really loud...

Oh yeah! I almost forgot... Knock em' dead tonight. You'll do an awesome job. I can feel it.

surlymike:
I love how I'm now able to start thinking about details of the Albertan visit. Whoo-hoo!

Is there *any* chance that the road to Banff will be free of ice on the Saturday we're there? I would think that HolaGatita would want to see the Canadian Rockies if she could.

I've been considering a summer visit to Edmonton. Should I go? smile

The Good

1. I brought a bunch of cd's from home so I can listen to whatever I want. And when there are no customers, I turn it up and maybe even sing and dance a little. That's between me and the security cameras. wink

I should have my schedule for next week by tomorrow (hopefully). I'll have a slightly better idea then.

Either way I still say boo Calgary!

Hey... if it works. wink

Maybe it's the weather. So grey today.

I feel "off". Like something just isn't right. I wish I knew what it was so I could fix it.

I could use a good laugh.

That sounds like what I was doing the weekend before last. As the Drowsy Chaperone put it, "a general anxiety resulting from non-specific sadness. A state I call 'blue.'" It shall likely pass in time, as will the grayness and snow that I'm sure play a part.

Random Humour!
tilpacer:
Sorry, that you are feeling off. frown

What? You thought I was going to add to the humour buffet about? tongue

Have a great day! biggrin

Even though I am loathe to replace my last entry (because of it's awesomeness) I have a bunch of pictures that I got around to uploading! Anyone who missed it, can always go back and read it. So here we go. biggrin

I mentioned that danny_g and I went to Edmonton for glass cat's birthday, but now I have photographic proof!

misguided has some food!...

I have my sights set on the PB&J one. I'll admit that I would prefer that it be vegan, but, admittedly, I'm going to have one, anyway. biggrin
danny_g:
Brace yourself... they killed Lilly Kane. Shocking, I know. Yeah, that's all I'm saying.

I meant it, for all that was worth. What I may or may not have thought in the years since hardly seems relevant.

Very well, you asked for it--
1. Hiro
2. Peter (PETER, dammit!)
3. Claire
4. Matt
5. Mohinder
6. HRG (moved up a couple notches this week)
7. Nathan
8. Isaac
9. D.L.
10. Poor, doomed, Simone
11. Micah
12. Any characters added in season 2, even the one who didn't work out and everyone hated him so they killed him right before the finale

So many good times!

On Friday, danny_g and I drove to Edmonton for glass cat's birthday party. There was Twister! There was Guitar Hero! There was late-night drunken ordering of pizza by glass cat, who is very concise and polite on the phone while drunk. smile
We had to drive back to Calgary a mere 12 hours after arriving in Edmonton, due to danny_g's fight...

Oh man... that's true. I did say that didn't I. Well, I'll be honest, it's going to be "Boxcar" that reminds me of you for a long time.
Other suggestions... uhh... "Want"?

That would be awesome. You just have to bug me lots as I am forgetful.

I really do mean to update more regularly. Sometimes I even get on a roll and then... well, I get lazy. tongue

The hockey game is about to start up again so this entry will probably be fairly short. But there will be pictures! That's worth something right?

Went to a hockey game a while ago. The Flames were retiring Vernon's jersey that night so the...

Oh, my weekend was much quieter than that. I arrived home from work early on Friday because I had a severe fatigue happening that morning. Since then, aside from hanging out with HolaGatita for a chai, dinner, and a movie on Saturday night, I've been somewhat homebound. By choice, of course. tongue As much as I love travelling and socialising, isolated slackness can be *quite* enjoyable, too!

Calgary trip:
Friday, April 06
Alaska Airlines 2542
Depart: Seattle, WA at 2:47 PM
Arrive: Calgary, AB at 5:10 PM

Sunday, April 08
Alaska Airlines 668
Depart: Calgary, AB at 1:32 PM
Arrive: Seattle, WA at 2:08 PM

All we have on the agenda so far is the game and a visit to a comic book store, but, of course, food will invariably be part of the visit, as well. smile And perhaps Grindhouse, too! biggrin


danny_g:
Cool cool. Wasn't sure if that was today or tomorrow (tomorrow being kind of busy for me). Call if there's plans and whatnot.
