Back... Almost...

Well... You've probably noticed that i haven't posted in a week... Well, here's a rundown on how i've spent the last week;
6:00 AM; Wake up (in theory)
6:30 AM; Leave for school
7:00 AM; Get to school
12:05 PM; Skip lunch, and head to shop for lunch and 4th block. No food has been aquired.
2:05 PM; School ends, keep working as more crew shows up.
3:00 PM; Stop and do homework. Then continue working.
5:00 PM; Onstage for rehersals.
7:00 PM; Crew orders pizza.
7:25 PM; Pizza arrives.
7:30 PM; Show opens.
8:30 PM; Largest scene change-- always mayhem--.
8:45 PM; Intermission. Run to get drinks.
9:00 PM; End intermission.
10:30 PM; Show ends.
11:00 PM; Finish fixing most of the things we managed to break.
11:15 PM; Drop off friend at his house.
11:45 PM; Get home.
Midnight; Go to sleep.
I've been doing that for a week now, and its not over yet... The SOLE reason i'm able to stay awake, is that the ONLY thing i've been drinking, is mountain dew (contains caffeine), and i'm taking caffeine pills...
Not to mention, that every other scene change, we have to move a castle which weighs two and a half tonnes. So the bottom of my feet are quite raw, and my hands are torn to shreds.
But alas; the show must go on. And other than a few screups that seemed to be more a problem with flying pipes in, than moving stuff, things have gone pretty smoothly...
So anyway... 2 shows today, one tomorrow then the cast and crew p[arty, and some striking... THEN, i'll be back for good...
