chicafrom3Hey, do you know what is totally NOT made of win? A four-hour power blackout followed by another twelve hours of internet what refuses to work. *growls at the school*
And then, and then, once the power comes back (but before the internet connection does) trying to boot up your laptop only to have it totally fail to respond, panic, spend frantic moments checking power cords and the room lights to make sure there's no reason why the power shouldn't be working, panicking more, walking downstairs to get a drink while continuing to panic and think about how you'll survive if your laptop is really and truly dead, then getting back to your room and realizing that the power strip cord was knocked out of the wall, which is also the reason why your phone has stopped charging and the TV won't turn on. Yes. I am an utter ditz who nearly talked myself into a heart attack.
(Also uncool? Being offline for sixteen-plus hours and then logging into your e-mail to discover a mere five new messages. *sigh* Yes, I'm an e-mail whore.)
I can't bear to face getting caught up on my friendslist because I'm In A Mood, so if you posted anything in, say, the last twenty-four hours that you think I should see, drop me a link and I will check it out.
On brighter notes, Yellow Boat has almost all of its props now! Yay! We still need the Frankenstein bolts. And the dolls are getting made on Wednesday during my Theatre For Young Audiences class. And minor adjustments need to be made to some of the props (clipboards need to be painted, finger puppet needs a grass skirt sewn on, that sort of thing) but this is well and truly Progress. Which is good, 'cause it's October now and we open on the eighteenth.
The cast is supposed to be off-book tonight. I laugh and cringe simultaneously and am somewhat grateful I will miss a large chunk of tonight's rehearsal for class.
Link of the moment: a post connecting Chess and xkcd, two of my Greatest Loves Ever. :D :D :D
And Randall blogs about the xkcd meetup!
No classes tomorrow, but I do have work starting at 9AM.
And, um. Yeah, that's about it. Mostly I'm still sulking about the power/Internet outage. I deserve a good sulk, I think.

I do the same thing, lol! Although I'm such a spazz, I'll do it in reverse as well: "Ahhhh, I've got 300 messages to respond to!" *faints* But then if I log in and there's a big 0 showing, I'm all, "*gasp* Nobody loves me!" *emo* ;)

*whips out a pack of links like I'm a-gonna show you a stack of vacation photos* ;)
Don't know if you saw this one on where I'll be in October

My Nine/Rose vid!
If you get the chance to check any of them out, that would be cool beans! If not, no worries at all; I just thought I'd bring 'em to your attention, just in case! ;) *hugs!* ♥♥♥!!!

Hee, I've done that too, with the 300 messages? Come on after a weekend of forced absence and go OMG what am I going to do? But it's better than that depressing little "you have no new messages". *sigh*

Good to hear about the props -- the ones you mentioned make the play seem very interesting. Heh.

It's a very interesting play! It's very abstract in performance. And very sad, honestly. Um. Yes. I spend most rehearsals laughing at/with the cast, but whenever we rehearse the last handful of scenes I'm practically in tears by the end of the night.

I might actually go into a coma if I was deprived of internet access that long... I'm very glad you suvived :)
