Yesterday I took a mental health day and slept for 14 hours!
Back in the propshop today. I was all set to build my electric chair when I and othes found out that all the on campus wood is spoken for
so I scaled down my project to 1/4 scale of the original. so that means that only mini-me can fit in it
otherwise I'd...

I hate to be an ass...but you've requested my friendship twice. My general rule is you gotta leave a comment or something before doing that...just so I like, know who you are and crap.

You definitely made the right choice not to go into social work. You're friend painted a VERY accurate picture of what it's like. Although I worked with domestic violence victims who are disabled. I was the deaf/hard of hearing specialist.
As for going back to school...no shit! I spend my day surrounded by 18 year old little boys!! Half the time it feels like I'm getting a second chance to relive my childhood. The other half of the time I just want to sit alone and think adult thoughts...whatever THOSE are! And since those little boys don't want to hang out with the old biddy in the class...and since I moved far away from home to do this...I have an AWFUL lot of time to myself to think those thoughts. (still not sure what they are)
Anyway, thanks for leaving me a comment
I hope there aren't any hard feelings or whatever. I'm just a cranky old lady that way

Who designed it? That rules! I'll have to find a photo of our crayfish pour vous.
The highlight of my week was the props shops! The head of props is francophone, so I even got to practice my French around him - amidst all the leatherwork for Beau Stratigem, laster this semester. I'll be stitching, soon, as well.
Happy Props-making!

Robert? Ha!
He designed South Pacific at Red Deer College when I was there. It looks as though I'll be taking a class with him next year, as well.
The version of the show I worked on by designed by Colin Winslow (also of U of A fame). He's now my drawing prof, and I lurve him! So scathing and great.
Yes, I think most theatre people are quite mad. It's comforting, really.

My Gramps is getting much better.
Those old folks that went through the depression are made of tougher stuff than us today.
Thanks for all your kind words & concern I appreciate it.

Whoa! That's awesome! Just stopped in to see what you've been up to. I especially love the glowing skulls. Everythings cooler if you make it light up. At least in my humble opinion.
Glad to here your grandad is doing well.

There are enough opportunities in graphic design, but I'm not even sure what I wanna do with myself. I really want to work more with animation or even 3-d.
tomorrow I have to present my proposal for my degree project yet again. I han't even got a clue as to what medium I want my work to be in the end. Good luck comming up with your next project idea!
Hah, in my former appartment I had to keep reattaching the chain from the plug in the toilet to the floaty thing with a paperclip.

Thursday I had to make the single most depessing phone call ever. I had to call my Grampa on his 91st birthday when he's in hospital with Pnumonia for the 3rd time in a year and the don't expect him to leave this time ...
Poor old guy's a widower.
My dad's gonna be a mess.

Thanks.
Nice tattoo! It must be crazy to see something you've drawn on someone's skin!
How did the skulls go?
As for Los Straightjackets, they are even better when seen with The Pontani Sisters!

Her tattoo is kinda weird to look at, cause when I do i see the entire process ... what I erased, what I added. I still love seeing it though. But she's gone to Thailand and asia for at least a year. She only missed the Disaster by a week to return for the holidays, she had been there (asia) for 18 months.
I'm still working on the skulls im doing a half cast of just the fronts so my prof said to make a plasticine dam & now I'm painting on layers of latex & cheese cloth to a bout 3/8" thick.
Take it easy.

Yeah my prof took a lot of really dodgy jobs when he was young & exploitable. He's paying for it now that he's in his 40's. He still works at a killer pace but has to pick & choose his jobs more carefully, but he sees his mistakes as learning opportunities for his student's to act safer now than him then.
I found this cool site while trying to come up with other methods Dan Perez studios
Widow, I hope your computer feels better maybe feed it a little Buckley's right in the floppy slot. It worked wonders on me
Time for sleep too

Wait, so he became allergic later on? That stinks. I know a lot of people who don't wear ventilators, which is crazy! I'm tempted to wear mine when I hang out with my friends who smoke. Sadly all of my friends smoke.
Thanks for the link. That is actually very similar to the way that I was just taught.
PS people will tend to respond sooner if you post to them in their joirnals.

Man, I don't believe in that stuff, but your experiences would scare the shit outta me! (and make a believer)
If I was you, I'd move outta there pronto.
Damn man, I got the willies just thinking about it!

I'm kind of a live & let live type of guy but what do you do when the other person involved is the restless dead?
The thing with all this spooky stuff is that none of it really fucks with my shit. So I think as long as I'm cool and it's cool we'll get along famously.
And I have 7 months left on my lease.

Went to the CJSW 20th anniversary thing @ Brokencity last night. It was like taking a time machine back to 1997l ots of old faces I haven't seen in years. It was cool.
Lindsay has her new back piece now it's gonna be weird seeing somthing I drew on someone else's skin forever.
I hope it lasts longer than I do, I'd like that.

ahh, doing some custom designs eh! IMO, custom the only way.
Thanks for the comment, about my friends loss. I was finally able to talk to him, and he's doing well (as well as can be).
But, yeah, let's see that tat!
Hey, you get into Robert Gordon at all (usually with that Link Wray on guitar)...

Robert Gordon, I have a few mp3's kicking around and I do like what I've found.
By the way one of my buddies is trying to scare up some really old country & western old cowpoke type music (ie. Wilf Carter & Roy Rodgers) for a play he's sound head on. Any other suggestions?
Regarding your friend, I really wanted to offer more in the message, but it seemed too crass & inapropiate for me to offer my opinion. It's still seems kinda weird mentioning it now. Discussing misfortunes is always kinda sticky

Also, you ever hear about how Carl Perkins (who wrote "Blue Suede Shoes") had a stroke of bad luck that cost him the title of King of Rock n Roll. Apparently, he got into a car accident on his way to perform on a TV show. Months later, Elvis took the similar sound to the TV and rest is history.....
