SkunaFuna and other things that fall outta my head

Has this ever happened to you? Hmmm. . . .


Ok, so, I have had something happen to me, that I do not believe has probably happen to anyone else in the world (but could under the right circumstances). So, I wake up the other day really tired, and maybe a little hung over. Not quite sure, but I do know that I was very tired. Not just stayed up late tired, but sleep deprivation tired. Nothing making sense tired. Yes, that kind of tired. So, in order to wake myself up, I head to the bathroom for my usual morning ritual. You know, pee, shower, get ready for work. Well, I've peed, taken a shower, so now I'm up to the getting ready part. Well, I put on deorderant, moisture my face, fix my hair, put on my clothes, all the usual stuff. Well, today I decide that I'm going to wear my contacts. I don't always wear my contacts, especially this pair because they're starting to get old. I only wear them when it is in my best interest. Examples would be when I'm sweating and my glasses might slip off my face. Anyway, I go to put in my contacts and I look at them and I'm like "Wow, I never noticed that they looked like this. Gee I really must not pay attention. Oh well!" I put them in and I'm so excited because they're actually fitting me nicely today. Wow! They do fit nice. They don't hurt at all! Life is great! This IS going to be a good day! Yeah! And off I go to check my email before work.
Well, my roommate gets up to do his morning ritual. His ritual isn't as complicated as mine, maybe one or two steps less. Well, he comes out of the bathroom and says "Have you seen my contacts?" Suddenly I realize why my contacts fit so well. . . .they're not mine! Of course my immediate reaction is "No, why? Are they missing?" knowing very well that his contacts were in my eyes. Maybe if I said "no" he would stop looking for them and I could sneak them back into the case and no one would be worse for wear. Maybe I could fake having diarrhea and I could put them back? Maybe, just maybe. . . no, I knew they're was no getting around it. I get up and go to the bathroom to see if indeed I had HIS contacts in my eyes. And of course, I DID! Ugh! How embarrassing! It's like wearing someone else's underwear around for a day. Do you give it back? Do they just get a new pair? What an awkward moment! Ugh! Well, in my defense our two contact cases do look alike. They're both the same brand, and obviously we have the same prescription. In fact, his contacts felt better in my eyes then mine did! Maybe I should borrow a pair from him. . . nah, maybe not. Well, my contacts had never been taken out of my travel bag! I had not worn them this week, so we did I just assume that the contact case sitting on the counter was mine? Well, I've never really roomed with someone who wore contact, at least not recently!
Needless to say, I was soooooo embarrassed! I put the contact back into some new solution so he could put them in. Well, I just thought that we would put them in right then. Nope, he ended up wearing his glasses that day, and came back later to put in his contacts. If it would have been me, I would have just put them in, but that's a little gross don't ya think? Yeah, but hey, I just had HIS contacts in my eyes so beggars can't be choosers! So, that is the most exciting thing that has happened to me all this week. I know it's not much, but for me it was a first!

Rain drops keep falling on my head. . .

What a night! I went out drinking with my friends, Jeffo and Mitchell, and we had a wonderful time. We kept hopping around from bar to bar, drinking and doing what ever! I haven't done that in a while. And let me tell you, I needed it! It was so relaxing, however, I am kind of paying for it right now. I've got a slight hang over, and I slept until 11, but it was worth it.
Right now I'm in beautiful downtown Springfield, MA. There is really nothing to do downtown, especially since it is so rainy. And I don't mean because it is actually raining, but because it looks like it's going to rain, it's drizzling, and very wet everywhere. It's kind of depressing. I just want to go to the mall or something and hang out. I guess I'm too use to being in florida and places south that have beautiful weather. Eh, I guess you have to take what you can get!

Working is so tiring!

Well, I have now started my new job as Head Wardrobe for Super Grover: Ready For Action! And honey, let me tell you, things were a mess!!!! I have never, ever seen such a weird and confusing set up backstage! The show is hysterical, but back stage, it's not so funny. I have been staying up late nights trying to play catch up on so many things, and last night it finally caught up with me. My friend Jeff and I went to go watch the new Family Guy movie (Stewie Griffin:The untold story), and I lasted about 10 minutes! Seriously, I passed out!! But, I do have to say that I feel so much better this morning!
I'm actually head to Sesame Place today to pick up some merchandise, or at least see what goodies they have. I do have to say that Universal Studios Japan did have the best Sesame merchandise that I have ever seen. Their merchandise was absolutely crazy! You get get just about anything! They even had a plastic popcorn container in the shape of Elmo with Oscar's can. It was the CUTEST thing!
Today is going to be my first load out with this show, and I'm going to be loading the truck. I don't think that it's going to be that hard, but we'll have to see. It will be interesting at least! :)

Super Grover: Ready For Action!

Well, let’s try this thing again. I’ve tried twice to post to this blog, and for some unknown reason it hasn’t work. It wouldn’t be that bad if I hadn’t poured my heart out onto the page! UGH!!!! Technology! Can’t live without it. . . can’t live without it! Ok, so I’m suppode to be in Mississippi right now, but guess where I am? NAPA VALLEY! How she-she am I? VERY! I’m going to go on winery tours and such in the next few hours. And I can’t wait to get DRUNK! Oh, wait, I can’t because I’m taking antibiotics! Can you believe that! How many times does one get to go to Napa Valley? Few I must say, and I have to be on antibiotics! Of all the luck. . . but hey, that’s me!
So, like I was saying. . . I’m suppose to be in Mississippi for the next few weeks, but something have changed. I’m actually going to be heading out to the west coast tour of Sesame Street Live as head wardrobe! I’m very excited, even though I’m only going to be out there for a few weeks. I’m heading out to train their assistant wardrobe to be head. Show her the ropes, and get everything into order. You know, the usual stuff. Well, I just found out today that they don’t have any que sheets! So, I’m going to have to make those up as I go. I’m not exactly sure how it’s going to go, but I can’t wait!
