does rufus wainwright know he's writing just for me?

i've added a new link in the "good reads" section, it's spam poetry. i think it's brilliant. if you don't, well then, you're just wrong.

i'm sitting here at my computer and my cat is on the floor next to me, going batshit over her organic catnip. it's really funny. also, i'd like to reiterate - i lurve my new computer/office nook.

today at work, people from the community donated two high $$ items to the theater, both of which are specifically for the scene shop. one is a horizontal bandsaw, which i've never seen before but my td assures me will be very useful. the other (which i am immeasurably excited about) is a plotter. for those of you not in the know, a plotter is essentially a giant printer that can print documents that are up to 36" wide. this means i can print out my groundplans and drawings right there at work, instead of going to the outskirts of town where we usually go, or to kinko's where they are incompetent simpletons. it's like having 5 christmases all at once.

i have another word to add to the list of annoying "words" - thanx

also, why is there money?

1. What was the last song you heard?
sunglasses at night - corey hart

2. What were the last two movies you saw?
hidalgo and master and commmander

3. What were the last three things you purchased?
cat treats, mountain dew and gas for my car

4. What four things do you need to do this weekend?
finish painting the set, strike, empty the catbox.

5. Who are the last five people you talked to? jessie, eric, jerry, bob, michaela

i'm at work waiting for paint to dry. i can hardly contain my excitement.

one of the things i don't like about my job is the crazy schedule. dan's birthday is coming up and, because of work, i can't go out with him this weekend. that sucks.

otherwise things are just fine. my right hand is permenantly covered in silver spray paint, which gives me a sort of robotic- michael- jackson- one- glove look goin' on. i recently found a mix cd of 80's tunes i made a while back and that has been giving me hours of listening pleasure as of late. i've scored a freelance gig in chicago in august, which will hopefully start to plant my name in those circles, and lead to other gigs and recognition and then to jeff awards and then to complete world domination. maybe.

my Noisy Neighbors came home at 5 am this morning, and decided they needed to get their groove on. i hate.

st. patty's day is coming up.. i think i may actually go out and have something irish to drink, like a whiskey or something. i have to remember to wear green, people will pinch me hard if i don't. they want to see me cry.

we went and saw hidalgo monday night. it was okay.. there were some really pretty picture moments, and i always enjoy omar sharif. i have to say i probably could've rented it and been okay, but seeing all those horses really did make me want to learn to get crazy on a horse.

today horses was cold. it is 40 or so, but there is a biting wind that whips all around and makes it really frigid outside. also, the wind makes the horses want to play and that makes them hard to steer. we stayed in the ring today, which would've been okay except i couldn't really practice much since luke was all ready to get crazy.

my big home project of the weekend is finished - i broke down my drafting table, folded it up and put it in the hall closet. it's the end of an era. i draft on my computer now, so i moved it over to where my drafting table used to be. it's technically a breakfast nook i guess, but i like to call it my "office". now it's even more like an office since there's a computer and little work counter and i actually spend time here now.

this week i will be cutting off my home phone and internet service, so posts may be less frequent for a short time. i have internet at work though, so posting won't be non-existant, prolly just less. i'll miss having internet at home, it's a debate i've been having for quite some time now.. i need the extra $$ in the bank though, so it's the "responsible" thing to do. damn.
