On Wednesday Bouse came over in the morning and we made some calls about airbands. It turns out that the Del Mar Fairgrounds are not going to work out as they already have conflicting events booked when we are looking at doing our show. Bouse and I took the tissue paper back down to Germain – all the stuff that is left over from this year that they would take back without a restock. This way I won’t have to worry about when we might use that stuff again and hopefully we won’t have the problems with the die lots again. Of course, it was raining pretty darn hard while we decided to do this, but I thought it was now or never so we went for it. We get to Pickett Street and it is just Lake Pickett. We gave it lots of gas though and got through the Lake and pulled up at Germain to find that they were basically closed because the place was flooded. Fortunately, there was still someone there who took our returns.

Then it was off to lunch at Fudds… mmm… I love that place! Then we worked on calling some other venues for airbands on our way to Fry’s. There is a possibility that we might be able to use the Jenny Craig Center at USD, but that is going to be a bit more of a drive. I just wonder how many would drive down there for NC Regionals. At Fry’s I got the new version of Virtual PC so that hopefully things are a little bit faster on my end of the marquee. I also picked up a new keyboard for my desktop. My wrists have been bothering me lately after typing for a while on that keyboard. I love the keyboard on my laptop and I found a keyboard that feels like my laptops keyboard so I hope it will work out better for me.

After Fry’s we got a call from Chad that said ASB’s new video screen was at Sound Image, so we went and picked it up. Well, after getting the screen we took a right out of Sound Image and ended up at the auto park. We weren’t looking for anything, but saw a cool looking truck parked on top of a car in front of the GMC dealership. Turn around and go back to check it out. Then, a couple hours later, Mr. Bouse is the proud new owner of a 2004 GMc Sierra 2500 crew cab. I basically told Bouse that if he didn’t buy the truck that day, I was going to, so he bought it… I think he’s rather happy about now. You can see pictures of Bouse’s new toy on his site at cbouse.com.

So that was Wednesday. Then Thursday I had to be up early for CYT school shows at the Bob. Those went well and then Chad and I went to lunch at Taco Bell… for over two hours! Oops… I guess we just didn’t have anything we’d rather do. Then we decided to go pick up his new spot lights in Vista and see what other trouble we could get ourselves into. We went to Fry’s to look at security cameras for the Bob cause I’m lazy and I’m tired of walking out to the front to see who is out there…

Friday I was back at the school at nutrition to edit music for dance. We played with the new camera for a bit and then went to the Firehouse for the first time this week! Then I went home for a bit to “rest” before coming back to work the evening CYT show. Of course, I think I got more work done at home “resting” than I do on most days, but such is life…

The show last night went pretty well, except for the usual amount of irritations…. I kept trying to open the house and people would be walking across the stage. Then I found this tour group up at the APs — again as I’m trying to open the house. Then there is Nate with his girlfriends in the front row… They’re sitting there eating Milky Ways, nate does nothing about it and they try to hide them from me as I walk up…

After the show we went out to Friday’s for a quick bite. Then I went to sleep and here I am back at the bob watching the paint dry again… Then I get to take a couple hours off before coming back this evening for strike tonight. Sunday I’m back here bright and early and the same thing Monday… This is just going to be a fun couple of days… Let’s see if I can make it through without killing anyone in drama…
