So tech week has started for Cats. It's kind of weird to come in on the middle of the production. I'm already sick of the show, not because of the production itself, but I can only watch the show about three times before I'm like ok enough Cats. I'm glad I'm doing crew in the sense that I have always appreciated crew and I have done it in the past, but it's good to go back to it and volunteer my time.
I will be so glad when this week's over though. I miss being home. Joe finally has some free time, most of this summer he had rehearsal. Now he has a couple nights a week where he's home and I'm in rehearsal. Then next week when i can be home, he'll have rehearsal every night. It sucks, we always seem to have bad timing. I miss seeing him and my dogs a lot. I know it's good to take a break and every once in awhile I need that, but now I just want to be with him. So that brings into question what theatre am I going to be doing this year? Joe's going to be extremely busy in the fall which would make sense that I do something in the fall, but then there's the thing if I don't do it opposite of him, the dogs are home all day and night. I know they would be ok, but those are our kids and we don't like leaving them alone for that much. It's amazing how those two creatures can create such happiness.
In other news I kind of got a promotion for work. Which basically means a hell of a lot more work. The work that was originally done by 2 people is now being done by me. This is because my coworker who was the research team lead now has to be a recruiter to make some placements. So now I'm in a leadership role, leading the interns. It's crazy and yesterday I was feeling very overwhelmed, but today it's going pretty smoothly. I mean it's wonderful experience especially since I haven't graduated yet and i have no idea what i want to do really.
I so want to go home, change into my pjs, and curl up in bed with my dogs and nap. Take a nice, long, hot bubble bath and relax. The house needs cleaning as well, who the hell knows when I'll ahve time to do that. This Saturday Joe and I are going to the medieval faire, that will be nice to spend some time together and do something we both enjoy. No, I am not dressing up.
Alright, it's time to try to focus on work once again. I've been working straight and hard since 8:30 except for the brief 30 minute lunch. Im kind of fried. And then I go straight from here to a 4 hour tech. Joy. However, I am not in the show dressed up as a cat in the hot Near West Theater, so I can't complain.
