windelinaIn the relief category:
The sit-sing with the orchestra went well. The orchestra is SO GOOD. Okay, I'm still scarred from the "Guys & Dolls" orchestra - but they are pretty good. No real intonation problems, just "keep it all together" problems. And when they know the music, it jumps.
The set has progressed rapidly and well! We're about ready to hang pretty much all the flats. The wine vat is done. Need to get the 3 wagons built but we're waiting for castors. Stoopit Menards.
Started fitting bodices last night. They should fly together since I won't be lining them. They won't be pretty on the inside, but I Do Not Care!
In the building stresses category:
Costumes. A lot still needs to be built. I'm concerned about how the parent sewers are doing (need to check in). Still have a lot of costume pieces (for the 40's stuff) to find and I'm running out of time. Also, I need at least two fedoras for HUGE NOGGINS! My god, the head measurement is 25 inches!
This weekend will be insane.
In the random notes category:
I have a huge blister on my thumb from cutting out fabric. (It doesn't actually hurt, but I'm tempted to pop it anyway.)
I need more sleep.
The chipotle was just what the doctor ordered yesterday.
I can almost outsing my full chorus. (Well, to be fair, they weren't really trying. Which is why I wandered over, stood behind them, and belted it out. Suddenly they got much more invested in singing. There were even traces of gusto.)
Anybody out there want to do some simple sewing? (C'mon, you knew it was coming.) We're talking skirts here. Skirts with elastic waistbands. That level of sewing. Simple and easy and you'd get the pieces already cut out.

Date: 2004-10-20 09:10 am (UTC)Backstage corridor to be rigged and flown tonight.
Left messages for Dave about moving the line set upstage, but haven't heard back yet.
Menards really is stoopit.
By the time this thing is done, we will have earned a weekend of Omegacon!
See you tonight.
