Drill King:
I really didn't like Toronto. Montreal would have been my top favourite if I didn't have to do live saving stuff. Chicago was nice.

The brother I went to school with? Yeah, he's pretty rad. Say hi! Sad thing about the other brother, though, I remember him as a pretty nice guy.

Yeah, he's the one I'll be living "with", aka sharing a kitchen, but having our own bathrooms and stuff. I'm sure he'll say hi back! The other one is pretty nice to everyone else, just not his family :p But I guess he's been making an effort to be nicer to his family lately as well, but he definitely has moments where he relapses. The next day he didn't even mention the argument and his demands, so I guess he had thought about it or something, who knows.
We had nice weather yesterday! I'm still pale as fuck and it was only 15 degrees out of the sun, but just being able to lie on the terrace in the sun and relax without being cold is amazing after this summer.
Lunchbox:
Look what I did tonight! I'm so clever!
Witness the loss of my sewing machine virginity here.
Barmymoo:
All I noticed at first was that you'd brushed your hair... but that skirt looks great! You have nice legs, Miss Lunchy.
Guys, I have a tight knot of tension in my stomach because of these stupid plays. I'm massively excited about both productions and they're going to be fantastic but I have far too many props and my budget just won't stretch to cover them. I have about forty items left to buy or make for the the Edinburgh show and less than £30 left - that is not remotely enough. I'm going to have to go over and take the risk that we don't make the excess back from ticket sales, but it is not a nice feeling.
Then the other show, the problem is time. I don't want to spend my whole time in Edinburgh in internet cafes trying to sort out the props but I have only got a week more at home and they haven't even finalised the props list for the Penzance show yet, let alone authorised my pricings. No other show has ever worked like this - usually they give you a budget, tell you what to buy, and you go and buy them. With the exception of the Edinburgh show, which is unusual in itself, this has never worked badly before. But no, I have to liase with three different people about the actual items, then email a fourth person with a pricings list, and then he will tell me whether or not I can get those things. If I can't, I have to go back to the beginning and liase with the three people again and try to find a cheaper version (bear in mind that I will have looked for the cheapest option in the first place...).
Basically after the two shows this summer and three next term that I've already committed to, I am taking a break from theatre. I can't take the stress for one thing! And I want to focus on dance and ice hockey.
Bah. Holiday? I cannot remember the last summer holiday I had where I got to just chill out and relax... my own fault, but I am fairly sure that if I carry on like this I'll end up with ulcers when I'm older.

Weeds season 1 was great, then it went downhill fast, and now it's fun to watch again because they just started going over the top with the craziness. In one scene my fiancee wondered why the characters weren't just doing some other thing that would have made more sense, and I started coming up with a justification when I realized "they're acting that way because nobody on this show ever does what a normal person would do."
Also, I've started watching Breaking Bad and this may be my new favorite "upstanding person turns to a life of crime" show. Who knew chemistry was so badass?
