I Never Want To See Lights Again!

Ok, just kidding. I actually love the light (natural and otherwise). My most favorite room in my aunt Deanna's house that I'm staying at is the living room with huge, nearly floor-to-ceiling windows that look out over the lake. It is absolutely gorgeous when it's snowing, sunny, or pretty much any time of day.

Actually, I'm just sick of theatre lights. And not really those either because they're pretty cool, but I spent way too much time with them today for our production that is coming up tomorrow night. Today I spent a solid 3-4 hours programming a 20 year old light board, crawling around on the catwalk, adjusting lights, searching in the SECCA basement for power sources to the dimmer packs, and all kinds of other things I had no idea how to do before today. It's exhilarating to learn new things (and to be 25-30 feet above the stage), but today was a very, very long day.

I'm still kind of stressed about getting everything together for the show tomorrow, but I'm just going to let the professionals handle it and help out where I'm needed. It's going to be a longggggg day tomorrow and I'm really enjoying my evening in tonight. At approximately 6 this evening I had already taken a nice, hot bath, changed into my pajamas, and talked/Skyped with my family and Nick. Eventually I made my way downstairs for some dinner and a nice talk with my aunt Deanna and now we're both sitting in the living room. She is working diligently on student reports and I am blogging and about to play with my GPS.
