Last Post for Summer 2k11. JWT over and out.

August 13th was our final show. It kind of sucked that it rained out within the final 15 minutes and we had to do a verbal summation, but I have no hurt feelings about the non-finishing. What we missed out most is that the actors' contracts had been written that they had to stay help with strike the final night, and due to torrential downpour, it sucked enough that no striking was done that night.
Leave that to the crew of carps to take everything down. out of 5 of us only 3 were worth a darn, needless to say strike took a lot out of me. And when we have to transport our set a half hour to storage, and you blow a tire on the first trip, it really sucks.
But, I made some friends, I made some enemies, never burned a bridge though, which I keep finding out is the worst thing to do. Have no hate.
I drove back on Wednesday, and got mad at the president. He stopped me for 45 minutes just outside of Davenport for his friggin motorcade to roll past. waste. of. my. life. time. money. sweat. Ironically I think I was almost in sight of where my alternator went out on my trip to Kentucky.
Now I come to ISU to kick some butt. Work in the shop of course, workstudy FTW, but...
I'm going to work every CY Stephens call I possibly can, because folks, that's real learning/practice, however you chose to look at it. And I'll get paid. ;)
