I should be ashamed.  They were only 4 weeks old, torn from their mother, living on the mean streets...and I turned them into a passel of momma's kittens.

 I'm starting to get concerned.  Last week I couldn't make it in to work before 1pm but I didn't much worry, I'm pretty burnt out and it was my last full week at my job and I had no shows coming up to plan for ( Read more... )

I had an audio gig today.  I don't do that very often and it's a good thing.  When I work an audio show it is driven home to me in an unmistakeable manner that audio is much easier than lighting.  Why oh why could I not have been born to audio ( Read more... )

 For the last several months I've been planning for the Spring Dance.  (It's no longer called the Spring Fling because it's a catholic university and 'fling' suggests an illicit affair of a carnal nature.)

I call it Ego-rama because my young clients have shifted budget from dazzling the audience to covering themselves in glory.  We went from catered ( Read more... )

 I built the Kitten Kompound  (or Kitten Kondo, I can't decide.)

The Kompound is comprised of an Officers Latrine, Enlisted Latrine, barracks, mess hall, and PT grounds.

Last Friday I received an email that a mom with five kittens needed a foster home.  I felt it was a little soon after saying goodbye to my last foster cat but I didn't see the mail until an hour after it arrived so I thought my chances of being selected were ( Read more... )

Tonight I stayed at my desk until 10pm.  I accomplished many things great and small.  I booked a crew, advanced some shows, wrote some orders, printed checks and invoices, cleaned up my email--and yet I still don't feel on top of my work load ( Read more... )

I suspected that something had grabbed hold of me that sub-zero day, frittering around with the truck in Wisc.  Every day I have felt a little worse and now I'm full-on miserable ( Read more... )

Just got back from the Wisconsin show.  It doesn't seem to matter how brief my absence, I always love the first sight of the Minneapolis skyline http://www.flickr.com/photos/12535575@N03/2256631153/

Thursday was the prep and load and I went to the video company to pick up their gear.  I got a great line from one of the guys.  I was calling the pack ( Read more... )
