yea! a good show! and much appreciated, by me and my ‘creditors’. ^_^
can’t say the two new ones did all that well. people still seem a bit intimidated. and i was surprised at the number of people, once again, who seemed to be seeing me for the first time. i have done that show twice before, tho not last year. and others not all that far away. i keep thinking everyone has already seen me at least once. not so. and that’s a good thing!!
i did something i just don’t do these days – i rented a motel room on sat night. i realized as i drove the two hours home after setup friday night, that i just didn’t want to do that again the next day. especially since setup was so late and i didn’t get home until after 9:30! and then there was a game to watch. can you believe they had the nerve to lose after tom waited for me and i drove home, etc etc.!! and then they won the next night when i didn’t even get to see it. dang! so, i rationalized the cost of the hotel with saving a round trip in gas. plus, since wade couldn’t come with me on sunday, i saved the 10% of gross for the day. so, even with dinner, i think i broke even and was a lot less whipped yesterday. course that meant i had to do teardown alone. like what else is new???? not like the first time!! took the normal 2 hours, so i was home by 8:00. and here i am – feeling tired still.
just put on the required pot of corned beef and will add potatoes in a bit and then cabbage at the last few minutes. oh, putting in green beans for everyone else. maybe wade will eat cabbage – probably no one else.
happy st patrick’s day!!
love and beauty
