The List

Eric is the only person I know that is harder to get a good picture of than me. Maybe if I super glued his face in a normal expression... Anyway, this is the costume I made him for his Steampunk Scottish Ball. It looked much better on him than in the picture. Leather tailcoat. Leather top hat with magnifying glasses mechanism in the headband. Brocade vest matching the hat band. Tie. Cane and spats with antique buttons. I bought the shirt and pants at Savers and he wore his dance shoes.

The Etsy site is up, but only one person has their stuff up so far. I did take the pictures of her home spun yarn though. Does that count? Now that the site is up I haven't decided what to make. Figures. And of course I've booked myself silly this month. Check out the store at http://www.etsy.com/shop/Trellised?ref=pr_shop_more

Ann Compton has come and gone. She was very nice, but I have my political issues. :-) Next up, Sigourney Weaver.

We filmed a bit for the non-profit. I suck and really, really do not want to be on camera. Seriously. Ew.

Yesterday I went to the Art Crawl with Kevin. It rained as usual for the crawl and I opted not to risk the camera by bringing it so, no pictures unfortunately. There were some really great artists with some very inspiring stuff. You'll just have to trust me. ;-D

Last night I worked a comedy play, running the second camera. Fun play, but I really couldn't pay attention properly and keep people in frame. I still wasn't feeling well from last week's nasty flu so I didn't stick around for the opening night party. My ability to carry on conversations had been reduced to saying, "Nice job."

Today (boy, this blog sounds more like a list than a blog. Hopefully I'll get better at it.) I went to May Day brunch with some Scottish dancers and then a psychic fair with my friend Julie and her mom. I really just went to see Julie's mom and some friends who work the fair. Even though my friends ended up missing the fair it was still nice to see Julie's parents again.

Tomorrow I begin shadowing a local director. I'm really excited to see how he works. Auditions were a blast. I really like seeing how things work from this end. It will eat up most of my evenings this month but it will be worth it I hope.
