cake for supper
Feb. 27th, 2016 07:25 pmyesterday the lighting designer was in the ER with a resurgence of the autoimmune issues he'd had over the summer. He was back today, and I hugged his mother when she brought us pizza. Yikes.
we are less than two weeks from the opening of the show.
I am freaking Right the Fuck Out over ticket sales and coping by doing NO THING
I was at school today from 9 to 5 while the light kids did their thing; hanging, focus and gels - basically working in the dark for 8 hours, except they let us have exactly one light so long as it had a peculiar gel that no other light was using. Having the light stuff happening now instead of this time next week is a huge improvement in quality of life for me. I hope it is for the kids too.
another kid was there, the thrid from that family I've worked with, all charming. Turnd out he also has a thing for cardboard, so he spent time decorating the wall under the tower with "tiling" and "rocks" after we cut a tunnel in it and made it awesome.
I have most of the back wall of the set up and need gigantic sheets of cardboard to staple to it in folded forms to be painted and decorated like buildings.
I have to figure out some stabilizing for the back wall, because it could be deeply hazardous
I made an appointment on Monday for getting new work photographed in time to be submitted to the Surface Design Aassoc. exhibit at Schweinfurth (next Friday). One piece is EddyLine which is done and ready. The other piece I am trying to finish tomorrow is something like river of stars or milkyway or something like that. It feels like the galaxy, edge on, reflected. If I can't get it done, then at least I have one to submit. If I can get it done, I will be pleased with myself and vanish into the production for the last week and a bit, and then sleep for a couple days and kint mindlessly and eventually resurface.
In order to maintain a semblance of nutrition, I had pineapple upside down cake for supper, and mug cake with yogurt on it for dessert, but still, cake for supper.
