I'm still alive!

I have proven to be as lazy and not dedicated to this blog as I was to every Lisa Frank journal I beg my mother to buy me as a child.  
Maybe I'm not lazy though.  Maybe my life is uneventful and not worthy of anything to write about.  

Not sure....
Here's what recently has been going on in my life:

I'm currently in the  middle of designing light for the show Big Love at school.  It is my first design in the big theatre and frankly, I'm terrified.  The show is very beautiful and I'm trying my darnedest to make my lights as equally beautiful.  My last show I worked with a mere 60 lights.  Pretty simple.  For some reason my head exploded at the idea of having a ginormous stage to work with and will be in control of 100+ lights.  Guh...
Not that I don't have faith in myself, but I may wet my pants a few times during cueing.
In a couple weeks I hope to post some photos and a more detailed design process for my records.

I went bird watching for the first time!  
Honestly it was a lot more fun than I had imagined getting up at dawn to go look at duck through binoculars would be.  Not that I'm obsessed with ducks or anything, but does anyone have any idea of how many AWESOME looking ducks there are?  Here's my favorite:

  The hooded merganser.  LOOK AT HIM!  The thing has a frickin mow hawk!  This guy is the bad ass of all avian reptiles.  

Speaking of birds, I discovered my spirit animal is an owl.  Expect to see a new tattoo in the future.  

I spent my first shift as a bartender yesterday.  I am no officially skilled and prepared to make any drink.  Except a Manhattan, for some reason I suck at making those.  
   
I think that pretty much sums up my happenings of the most recent.  I'm off to meet the Jesse on the xbox to kill some aliens.  

Till next time!
