      Things have just hit the fan 😯

      I leave for 3 days for my sisters wedding and things go to H-E-double hockey sticks with work!! And now I have to sort everything out!!! All they had to do was follow the list of things to do and I’d said I’ll look after everything else when I get back πŸ‘Ώ But no they can’t do that. SOmehow there was a lack of communication between the Artistic Director who has half of the Set at her house and the Set Builder (basically the Artistic Director made one phone call and never followed up). So the Srtistic Director has also booked herself solid and is Unavailible to do anything for the show until Tech week. She also had this wonderful idea that the 3 guys she’s hired could take Half a set, turn it into a whole set and do it all in 3hrs down at the theatre where they don’t allow major carpentry!!! It took me over half an hour to convince her of this. So now I have to race around after work tomorrow and pick up this #$&@$%# Set (that took even more negotiation to be able to go pick it up) Wednesday night and storit at my house (where there is next to no room) and have e-mailed all of my carpenter and technician friends begging and pleading and offering bribes of food and beer to come to my house on the weekend to build the thing. All of this was supposed to be planned out (and was πŸ‘Ώ ) a month ago, but no one did anything!!!! So now I have to fly in to the rescue and magically pull this off. And we still don’t know if we can get the fireplace facade that we need cause the Artistic Director has been too busy to help with her own show!!!! I had a meltdown with them last week where I became the Bitch Queen from hell and things got done, but not all. We have under 2 weeks till we go into tech and I feel like I’m the one running and putting on this show with no help whatsoever. No one could possibly be paid enough to deal with this kind of @#$%##$!!!!!! πŸ‘Ώ

      I’m going to bed now where I’m going to cuddle up with a stuffed animal (cause I have no one else) and cry myself to sleep.

          Im sorry Foxfeather. Turn into the wicked witch of the west and do your best to get it done. Once its done, to the best of your abillities, fire whoever you left in charge… if possible. Please, though, dont stress. The way I see it, if you cant change it, freaking out about it does not help and only stresses you out more. When its all said and done, you will manage. Good luck. πŸ™‚

            Come up to Edmonton and I’ll let you throw concrete blocks into old monitors. It does wonders for stress reduction.

              Shotgunning them sounds more entertaining to me.
              Though I do know someone that took a troublesome copy machine out into a field and blew it up with explosives. I think he has a youtube video of it somewhere, I gotta look.

                I don’t video things I blow up. Criminal charges could come back to haunt me.

                I’ve said too much already πŸ˜†

                I’m sorry, foxfeather. πŸ™ But Nam gave good advice. Rent yourself a gun if you don’t own one and spend an hour or two on a range. Great stress relief, and it’s fun.

                  Good idea… stress the word, “Range.”

                  #585380

                  Are you interpreting that to be something that doesn’t have to do with shooting?

                    No, No… I just dont want her to shoot her co-workers. I would want to if I were in her place.

                    Ach so.
                    See, I’m not sure what other words there are for shooting ranges besides just that. Swiss German has half a dozen words for different types, but all I know in English is “range.” πŸ˜› So I was wondering if I’d used the wrong word.

                      Nope, you are fine πŸ˜€ I dont think there are any other words in the states. Im not so into guns, though, so I could be wrong. I just know indoor and outdoor ranges.

                      Good ’nuff. It looks like people know what I’m talking about. πŸ˜†
