I got another job... Or rather, I got rehired at one of my old part time jobs. The point is, I now have two part time theatre jobs. I might actually get enough work to get by. I've got two more theatre positions I want to apply for, and then I'll start the balancing act...

Woo! It's time to get my life together.

Today felt like the first day off since I came home from college. I sat out in my fort, and ate pudding cups, while taking pictures of my cat, and dog.

It's been a long week. I was working a tribute band in the city for the past five days, and it was one of the rougher gigs I've worked in a while. I wasn't getting enough sleep, or food, and tension between the crews seemed to be worse than normal.

It was strange though. I saw all the tension rise, and I saw people getting...

I made my bed out in the RV today, and stocked the cupboard with soup, and rice, coffee, and sugar. (what else do you need?) My grandmother gave me her old bunn coffee maker. The thing is ancient, but it's also the one that she used to use when I was a little girl trying not to wake up when her alarm went off at...

I connected the propane tanks today, and ran gas through all the lines. I sprayed them all with soapy water, and didn't see any bubbles.

The bad news is that I couldn't get the heater or the stove to light. I've gotten the heater to light once before, but nothing today... So it looks like I might have to sit out there, and tinker with...

Today I researched propane systems for the RV. I took some pictures of what it came with, and tomorrow I'm going to test the lines, and appliances to see if they work... I need a spray bottle, and some soap to do that.

I still need, at least one horizontal propane tank, and two would be best. That's going to run me four hundred dollars...

It has been a while,but I am back. And paid up for a year! Woohoo!

What is new? Well... I am fixing up a thirty year old RV. I am thinking about living in it, and possibly going on a nice long road trip... I am not exactly sure where my life is taking me right now, but I can tell it is going to...

just got back from a ten day road trip to North Dakota. It was nice to see family that I haven't gotten to see, and to get a new perspective on things. I learned a lot about myself, and the goals I want to set for myself. I did some sight seeing too, but I am SO glad to be home. I'll post pictures as...

That last show I worked in the city, just turned into another this coming weekend. I was worried about how I would pay my bills this summer but I think I'm going to be ok. The rest of this month might be really tight, and I'll probably go a little hungry, but July will be good, and August will be all right, come September when...

Sometimes I get a gig that reminds me of why I love my job, and just how good of high I get off it.

I got a last minute call from a friend that I did lighting with a few summers ago, asking if I wanted to come help with lights for a Dita Von Teese show in the city. I had this whole week...

I'm back for at least three months... Hopefully by the time the three months are up I should be doing better at work. I have the attention of administration, and the board of directors. Turns out I'm pretty good at shmoozing.

Quick catch up...

My boss at work has been scheduling her husband to do my job for me... So not cool! And the accountant...
