Day 67: No More Living in Costumes!

Before

Costumes is finished, costumes is finished, costumes is finished!!!! Whoop whoop. The Costumes storage unit is finally complete! And it only took what? A month! But now it is finally finished! The only thing I couldn't file away was a bag of hats. All the hat bins are full to the top, so for now I just set it aside, possibly to be gone through later but who knows :)  I finally moved onto the props unit. Very overwhelmed and very reluctantly I began emptying boxes and putting props away. I got through some dishes and cups, and discovered a broken bowl. I'm not sure what do in that instance so I set it aside and made a mental not to ask Mr. John about it later. I didn't make it through very many boxes, but I am heading back tomorrow or Friday before Ms. Annie joins me next week.

Back at the office I thought I'd get a jump on the PowerPoint presentation, but without more information and photos my attempt was a fail. Hopefully I will be be able to meet with Mr. John and Ms. Denise and get some more information to start putting it together this weekend. I returned to my dining and lodging project. Ms. Danni had added a few more restaurants and I had missed some information on another. I was able to get through it pretty quickly again, and added one more Ms. Denise had suggested.

After

Not too much action in the box office today. Just the usual a few donations to log, and post office run, and some resending of letters from the P.O. run. I also sent a few emails, and manned the phones after Ms. Kris had left and Ms. Denise and Mr. John were in meetings. I was able to get a little more work done on my script for my share, but still needs a lot of work!

It was almost quitting time, but with the stage open I decided to play. I started with going through (as best as I could remember) Beth's voice warm-up we have been doing. That was one of the emails I sent today asking for a copy of the warm-up. I then started work on my monologues and my song. I started with the song and then moved into the monologues in the order they are going to be performed for the share. Each piece I went through probably 5 or more times. Then I went through them all together about 4 times through. After doing them over and over they were just not sitting where I want them. I think it's because I was over thinking it as I was doing them over and over. Hopefully now that I've taken a break I'll be able to get some more work done on them through the rest of the week before meeting with Ms. Denise. After just about an hour and a half of work I headed home for the evening. Until tomorrow...
