First off, Happy Birthday, missharley! I'm really looking forward to seeing you and Tim on Saturday. Hope the show goes well this weekend for you both! (I just spent some time trying to find info online about your show and neither google, centerstagechicago.com or the Wright College website have any info on it! How can I pimp your show with no info!?)

Ok then. I've been told from a couple people that I'm not updating enough. Well, not updating about being very happy or anything substantial, really. Bah.
I'll write when I wanna. :oP

a few things going on in my world:

- Heather was offered the full time Art Therapist position she wanted at Rogers Memorial Hospital. Now she's in the process of either getting a mortgage and buying a condo (to be lived in for about 2 years) or finding an apartment closer to Oconomowac. Probably going to happen December 1st. I'm glad she'll be cutting her 1 1/2 hour drive down a lot and saving money on gas. The selfish side of me is sad we're not going to be living in the same place anymore. At least she won't be too far away. At least I get to cat-sit when she goes on vacation in January.

- School is going ok I guess. We started dissecting poor little cats last week and I get to look forward to it for every Tuesday until the end of semester. So far I haven't yarfed. At least they don't use formeldehyde anymore. There's a different chemical used that doesn't burn your eyes and nose but still not pleasant. It seeps into my clothes and hair too. Yuck.
I came home to my kitty and played with him for a long time out of guilt. I hope he doesn't know what I've been up to.

- Tonight I WILL find my Clue costume (I hope!!). At least I know where to get a fake knife now and have a good idea what to look for. Last night I skimmed through the movie again to practice my line (HA!!) and work on how I'm going to fall. (My ass hurts now, thank you very much). Who's supposed to catch me? Aron? I'd like to run through it with that person before the show if possible. I'm not very good at falling on my side while being stiff as a board.
NOTE TO EMILY (tugena13): PLEASE BRING YOUR GONG TO THE SHOW! THANKS!!

- My behavioral modification project for Lifetime Wellness is in its 5th week. So far, no weight loss. boo. This week I'm trying working out before school in the morning. So far I like it. It's harder getting out of bed but I have more energy for it vs. after work at 6:30 when I'm tired, bitchy and hungry. I have noticed I'm less winded after doing something strenuous, like going up 3 flights of stairs to my office or with performing Rocky. So that's cool.

- countdowns: 9 days to Harry Potter, 13 days to Rent. :)

That's all for now. Hope everyone is doing well.
My keyboard at Parkside's computer lab is sticky again. What's up with that?
Note to self: wash hands again before eating lunch. I'd better go eat something before lab. Give my stomach a fighting chance to digest it before I toss my cookies from cutting up my poor kitty...

Clue costume: DONE.

SUCCESS!!!

Value Village ROCKS MY WORLD:

- grey button up long sleeve cartigan with white collar and wrist cuffs. (hacked them off at the elbow and hand sewed the cuffs back on, just like I did for my Magenta dress. I'm getting good at that).

- grey wool pencil skirt (closest I could find in my size)

and at the dollar store I found:

- Ninja Training set complete with large knife that will work for the show, along with a mini Sai (thanks Steffen!) and two chinese stars with a ring of plastic covering the pointy edges.
Safety ninja stars!?! NO FUN.

all for a grand total of $5.43.

Sweeeet.


Now all I need to complete the ensemble is the goofy chef hat I borrowed from my boss and the apron that I usually wear for Rocky. Did we put our props in the basement after the halloween shows? Is the apron down there? I'm gonna need it. Also, I couldn't find 2 tops, so I'm going to put a hole in the back of the shirt and put the knife through it later on in the show. No fake blood then. Maybe I'll get some red cloth or something to make up for it. I'm not sure how that thing is going to stay up though. I might have to tape it to my back to hold it. The cartigan is very flimsy. Any ideas??
