blue in the face
so i actually have some free time this afternoon… i almost can’t believe it
this week has been pretty crazy. when up in dartmouth on tuesday night, my car’s alternator went out on me, leaving me, brandon, and his friend shane stranded in a petro-can parking lot. bran and i ended up taking a bus back to his place, i stayed there tuesday night with him, then bussed back in the morning to get my car to a garage. rolled my car down the hill (with the help of a mechanic’s truck) to a garage and waited for them to do the repairs, it was all done at about 4 o’clock in the afternoon. i had missed my class that day and was late for work, but it’s all good… next step is to put a new fan belt on that sucker, then get the crack in the windshield fixed. cars cost a lot of money, but it will all be worth it; i also need to get it checked out before i drive to montreal in may.
worked quite a bit this week, had a considerable amount of school work as well so i haven’t had much time to really do anything. met with students at horton on friday to talk about the play i’m directing. holding auditions on wednesday afternoon before i have class, and casting the show that night. i have to get my design plans worked out, while it’s not much, i would rather be ahead of the game because i have submit a script with tech notes within the next month or so for the in-house technicians. “machinal” is almost over, i’m running sound on the show tonight, then ushering tomorrow i do believe. the strike is tomorrow after the show, then cast party so that should be nice, although i doubt i’ll be drinking all too much. theatre pubcrawl is this upcoming friday anyway, so i’ll make up for the cast party then.
need to finish my reading for world religion and conquer my music tech assignment so that i have a bit of free time this weekend… if only i had money though, stupid alternator
i’m going to go try to finish this assignment before my call at the theatre
by the way, the band has a show on april 25th in windsor… more information soon

this one goes downhill quickly…
so i’ve been listening to a lot of norma jean’s new album “the anti mother”… really good stuff. hadn’t really given it much of a listen to, then a few weeks ago when i was out driving with brandon he played the song “robots 3, humans 0″ roughly sixty-thousand times and it took days for it to get out of my head. sad thing is, i’m listening to it right now.
aye, another busy week ahead, captain. my one class was cancelled today, as was my meeting at horton high about the play i’m directing there. i guess i’m going to have to head in some other day this week… ah, i’ll work it out
homework, reading, and all of that fun stuff is sucking away my free time. i’m devoting tomorrow night to actually being social, then the next few nights i either work or have to work sound on machinal, so i may be doing some homework in the booth… long-hand i guess.
i don’t think that there’s much more for me to talk about at the time-being. looking for a place to stay in antigonish this summer while i’m up working at F.A.S.T. (festival antigonish summer theatre), aside from that, i’m a horrible, boring person.
i’ll write more when i have stuff to say and i’m not so tired.
