Well, that's what stage makeup is for.
They've been wasting a lot of full company time, which is cheesing us off. Things that could be done with small groups on their own scheduled rehearsals is being done during our rehearsals. Last night we were called for 5:30, and they didn't use full company until after 6:00! And then there was a good hour wasted in the middle. Our Equity deputy is useless.
i have to work from 4-9:30.

This is my directors fisrt ever show. We all get called for 5:30, usually, and don't start until 7. I feel your pain.
My poor face is going to HATE me after stage makeup!
I took two Exedrin today for a migraine, but forgot that they have caffeine in them. My boss for work study was like "I've never heard you talk this much!" Poor lady.
I work from 10 - 5. Then run to rehearsal. Then get home around 11:30, time for bed and to start over in the morning.
But, since the project I'm on will be ending by the end of next week, I'm not complaining right now. Soon I'll have plenty of time, but no money.

I have no time AND no money! Isn't it grand?
i have no money either... just looking for a new job.
It is grand, DGG! You nut.
Good luck, middy, me too!

I told you, I'm caffeinated!
Not always.
You need to be careful, DGG. Caffiene can be like crack. You just have to know your limits.

It got rid of my headache, though!
True, Rath. Very true.
Olive pizza, anyone?
Sounds delicious, but I'm stuffed from lunch.

No problem I'll eat yours.
Which? Caffiene or crack?
I jest, I jest.
I had a headache the other day, but watching Wonderfalls took care of it. Nothing like a healthy dose of obscure television series!

BTW, my show is selling like hotcakes. So far, we're sold out for opening night and all Saturday shows.

YAY RATH!!!
*eats celebratory pizza*
<- - - has not had coffee in at least a few days. *gasp*
Rathy, I've forbid myself from stressing out about money. Now time is another thing.
Too bad I can't see it, Rath. But, I am glad to hear it's doing well!
If only Snoopy had that success. One night, we only had four people in the audience.

I'm in denial right now, soapy. Plus I can collect unemployment, although not at the maximum rate so I can't really survive very long on it.

Just remember, Rath. It can always, ALWAYS get worse. I know from experience! It sucks at the time, but from what I know of you, you try as hard as possible, and you get what you want. You'll be OK, even if you have to work al ittle harder than usual to be that way.

"What a disguisting job."
"Could be worse."
"How?"
"Could be raining."
*thunder and lightning strike, rain pours down*
You're a barrel of laughs today, missy.

If I had a dollar for every time I've heard that or "You're fiesty today" in the past week, I'd have...a lot of dollars.
