Two Days in Tech

So for my two 10 outta 12's (theatre speak for 10 tech hours out of the 12 that the crew/director are in the space), I went supes casual.

Yesterday I wore my yellow Nordys screen print tee, and BDG dark denim jeans with my black BDG saddle shoes both from Urban. And today I am rocking my Bitten by SJP grey tee and the same jeans with my Sperry Top-Siders.

Both days have been absolutely gorgeous... And I've been stuck inside a dark theatre for 10 hours (although on my two breaks, I was out enjoying the sun and warmth!). Not that I'm complaining. Seriously, what I wouldn't give me make a living doing this and only this. AH-mazing!

Pic of today's outfit to come... when I get home from our PREVIEW!

Rehearsaling!

Here I am! At rehearsal! On a weekday! At 3PM! And I've been here since 10AM!

It's amazing...

Sometimes, I love my life...

Woke Up With The Rain

Opening Week! Crazy, I know...

I kinda can't believe that in three days we will be in preview; in four, opening the show, and in six, closing it... WAY too fast.

Today through Wednesday we are in tech. And although I am working today, I have the next two days off (rehearsal 10a-10p). It'll be intense, but I am ridiculously excited for it.

Today, I also have my general audition at Seattle Shakes (because I can never cram too much into my life...) and have been mentally preparing for that all morning. Once I get through Shakes, I can focus on the new cuts in the script for Condo Millennium...

I am wearing my H&M $6 skirt (best impulse buy EVER), black opaque tights, black Steve Madden boots, purple H&M turtleneck and reversible black vest from Macys.

Gearing up for the crazy! And looking forward to sleeping in the next two days...

P.S. Ugh. Terrible picture. I can't wait until I have internets!

Saturday Night and Sunday Afternoon

Once I get teh internetz set up (tomorrow!) I promise weekend posts will be less sporadic, but right now, I'm writing about Saturday.

I spent a good 5 hours cleaning up my old apartment and then turned in my keys and walked home (to the new apartment!) carrying all my cleaning supplies. And I did not take a pic of that outfit... not cute, trust me...

Then I vegged for a bit before getting ready to go see Rimini Protocol at OtB where I got to play a little as an avatar for two hours--super fun! The only issue was when I "bonded" (got married) with another character and that stupid other person really wanted the stupid kids... so I ended up with a little green dot (a stupid kid) following me around for the rest of the game. And very quickly after that we "unbonded" (got divorced). That's a deal breaker, ladies!

I was, however, dressed all cute and enjoying our gorgeous weather. I was wearing my Urban screen print flower tee, scarf gifted from my Nana, H&M $6 skirt, and bright blue sheer leggings from Macys with my Jessica Simpson pink, black and white stub toe flats from Nordys.

And Sunday brought with it MORE b-e-a-utiful weather and M's game tickets. Mama didn't feel like fighting the crowds after dealing with them all day on Saturday (Pike's Place Market was apparently insane), so Lindy and I went alone. AND made new friends in the beer garden, as always. Plus they won! Two homers in a row! w00t! Then dinner with Mama for Mother's Day. Sorry no pics, I was running late, but I was wearing my Griffey tee, currentelliot boyfriend jeans and Sperry Top-Siders both from Nordys. Comfy and cool!

What's Black and White and Shiny All Over?

That would be me!

Trying out this new feature I found collaging my pictures. I've had fun playing with it. Today I am wearing my black Jolt skinnies from Nordys, black & white striped H&M tee with zipper shoulders and black sequined H&M bolero with my black BDG saddle shoes from Urban.

Only working today until noon and then heading to our first tech rehearsal! Super excited to start the process of building the show in the space. It's going to change a lot, but I definitely feel good about where we are right now (especially when I look at the two 12 hour tech days we have coming up next week). Opening night is in less than one week!

Busy weekend too! Seeing a play with Dani tonight ("Bat Boy" @ UW), yoga then cleaning out the old apartment and turning in the keys(!) tomorrow and seeing a play tomorrow night, and then Mom's day festivities on Sun (M's game with the Mama & Seestor--hopefully breaking their losing streak--get it together boys!) and possibly another play that night? Crazy times!

COVET

Although the beach looks amazing, what I REALLY want is the sunny warm weather (can I get an A-MEN from all you other Seattlites?!) I mean, where did our spring go? Apparently, yesterday was the coolest Cinco de Mayo on record (48 degrees)! WTF?! Come on weather!

Gimme some SUN!!!!

Twirling, Swirling Into the Deep

Happy Seis de Mayo! Although most people celebrate Cinco de Mayo, I know the true day to celebrate is el SEIS, porque es un dia de los cumpleanos de me mama. Feliz Cumpleanos, mama!

After yesterday's mental clusterfuck, I am glad to begin a new day with, hopefully, better results.

Thank God for rehearsal, that is all I have to say...

Today I am feeling a litte twirly, swirly, girly in my F21 grey ballerina skirt, black gifted v-neck tie-waist sweater with satin puff sleeves, Urban fishnet leggins, DKNY black knee socks and black shiny faux snake skin Dolce Vita heels from Nordys.

Yay for new beginnings and a free last minute lunch (assisting in Seattle market has its perks)! Today already feels superior to yesterday.
