Tear My Hair Out!

SO! FUN STORY!

I'm doing art direction for this film, right? This means I'm in charge of props and decor and stuff like that. So an actor has a mega conflict and everything gets switched around, meaning that I have to buy a ton of flowers, originally needed for Tuesday... BY THIS SATURDAY MORNING! LOL!

>.<

Now, this wouldn't be as much of a problem if:

A) the shooting hadn't already started and I have to be there for some of it to dress the set, thus taking time away from me.

B) I wasn't in a 5-minute theater scene for Sarah Zemach's directing project that has taken, literally, 20 hours of time away from me this week, because there are consistent delays with tech and eight other individually student-directed scenes. I arrive at 6:30 and end up leaving at midnight. And I'm in the scene for 30 seconds.

Luckily, Paula, Krystina, and Lizmarie helped me for the beach scene tomorrow and gave me all their beach stuff so I didn't have to worry about getting to a pool supply store and spending part of our budget on common Florida stuff. Huge help, thank you so much! :)

So yeah. I have to start writing up a schedule for tomorrow morning of places to go shopping at/people to go borrow from. I have to get up at 7am to drop my mom off at the hospital, then get across the city to the 9am beach shoot. Then get to school at 1:25, take a final exam I've hardly studied for, pick my mom up at the hospital, and go about getting flowers all day until 7:30 where I get dressed and do the stupid show from letter B and get it over with. The call is supposed to be 6:30, but I have little make-up, and frankly, I need the time.

I stay up late and get up early to pack as much shit as possible into my days. I have finals. I have a scene from Angels in America to shoot on Monday, and I don't even know if I have the hospital room in the nursing school reserved because the lady never got back to me, and she doesn't work on Fridays or weekends, thus meaning I won't know. Ever.

*flails about and whimpers like a whiny 'mo*

EDIT: Crisis solved. The hospital canceled on the film for Saturday so now I don't have to have the flowers ready for them! *jumps in joy*
