Changeover

Today was changeover from Suessical to The Who's Tommy. We focused a few more lights today and changed a few gobos. We also pulled some colors and set footlights and striplights. It went pretty smoothly and I felt in control of the paperwork, which was a good feeling. I didn't feel panicky about how much I had to do and I understood what was going on, so that made me happy.

On a less than great note, I didn't feel very good when I was leaving work today. I still feel a bit off (I had some pretty strong stomach pains that are much less now) but I know that I will be going to work tomorrow morning unless they are as bad as they were this afternoon. I definitely don't want to miss tomorrow because I have so much to do and I don't want that to fall on anyone else. Tomorrow is when I do most of the work that needs to be done by an assistant. Actually, I'd probably still go to work anyway unless I thought I was going to throw up on the drive there. I was a bit worried that I might either throw up or pass out this afternoon. I felt a little dizzy for a while, but just made sure to drink some water and move slowly. I took a 2-hour nap and some ibprofen. That seemed to help enough. I made cheesy chicken for dinner, which still sounded good enough to eat. After eating that, I felt quite a bit better. I'm planning on drinking a lot of water and just making sure to take things slow. Luckily, I'll be stuck sitting all day tomorrow and won't have an issue with feeling light-headed. They're all very nice at work, so I know that if I am feeling really off, I can step out for a minute and breathe. Not that I'd want to go outside because it is far warmer out there than it is inside the theatre. In fact, it's usually freezing inside and I plan on bringing a sweatshirt to work tomorrow despite the predicted 87% humidity and high of 90 degrees. It's really cold in there!

The last exciting thing I did today was watch Hell's Kitchen. Tomorrow night is the finale. I'm very happy with the 2 finalists. I don't want to put their names in here because my lazy boyfriend hasn't watched it in awhile and may want to watch the last few episodes instead of reading what I wrote here. Also, most of you don't give a shit and would probably watch it yourselves if you did.

That's all I got. I'm in a little bit of a sour mood having spent most of my afternoon laying down (I hate sitting still when I have other things to be doing), so I apologize for that. But I hope you will still read my lovely blog and that you with the words won't suck as much as I do.

Love,

Kiki
