standby for a sequence, girls....
May. 6th, 2007 11:46 pmSo I apologize in advance for this because I think I'm probably delirious but only in that dull, swaying sort of delirity that happens after tech weekend! Which at SU means double ten-of-twelves.
I don't remember how much I've said here about the constant accidental calamity that is the SU drama department, but the latest one is our sound designer, Dominic, in the hospital...he's out now, & he's okay, but this weekend Ki had to call in Lindsay, who designed the original Nice & Nasty that Ki was in (oh theater is such a small world).
So this weekend was tech...& Lindsay knew the sound program somewhat, but he didn't know the show much anymore. So it was me & him trying to follow Dominic's design, & fiddle with the sound program, & make everything happen--while Eldon & Jacki are working all the lights, & Cozy's gamely calling everything; she was fabulous. So, really, a normal tech weekend. Although both nights we lost Lindsay at 7pm, so it was me & the computer for the last four hours. Oy.
Oh, gawd, I am exhausted...but I'm pretty darn proud of it, all together. Also, I now know more about the sound design program than anyone else in the drama department except Dominic, & I'm not a good enough person to deny myself the satisfaction of lording it over Damian. (Lording it over Dave is more of a joke, since he's actually in charge half the time, but he in fact knows next to nothing about the SD program either, so I can lord it over everyone.)
& I have techno music stuck in my head. Oh, argh.
Um. I can't remember what else happened. Maggie & I wrote a fundraising letter for Arcadia, which I have to go read over the edits for now, but it was pretty fantastic. Oh, & Kristen & I went to see Edward Scissorhands again, which was beautiful of course. I was dancing absentmindedly in the aisle during the intermission & the lady behind us said, Oh, do you dance like them? I laughed.
I don't know what else. I had one of those weekends where my head was stuck in a bucket & that bucket is tech. One of those where I come home wanting to laugh & cry at the same time. Y'know, those. I did get out of tech early tonight though, & I managed to run across the grass & get to St Iggy's in time to for Nikki's confirmation. (I always forget how weird church is, when I don't go for a while...)
Anyway. I am going to go look at that letter. & then maybe do homework? ...but probably go to bed.
