Trip #2: Second Entry

Busy busy busy, thats what I am. Today is my day off and I am currently waiting for my Canada Council grant to print off before I rush to the post office to send it.

Things are well. Found the DVD redone Star Wars Trilogy - thats added a whole new dimension to the knitting, and other than that working my ass off trying to make a kick ass show....we'll see what transpires.

I moved into a new apartment today, a great basement suite with my own laundry facilities. Oh yes to washing my clothes whenever I want.

Other than that my life is boring...when something happens I'll update...

Day 14 of rip #2: Whitehorse


Its been a long haul people - holy shit. I arrived here almost two weeks ago to a beautful fall in Whitehorse. everything is yellow, orange, gold, crimson, green and earthy. Its absolutley stunning. And surprisingly not too cold or dry. They got a lot of rain this year.

My first week was spend desperatley trying to cast a 13 person community theatre show. My musical director dropped out on me and I was just about to give up when I got another - a good friend I know from up here named Dave - a fellow clown and musician. Whew. I had to cast a part by going to the local Karoke night and begging a young 20 year old kid to be in the show - it involved quite a few beers between the stage manager myself and this guy but we suckered him in after the White Russian shots at 2:30 in the morning and now I have cast the show....

I am upto my eyeballs in work, but I am knitting a lot and yoga'ing to keep in shape. I am also choreographing a dance solo so I am swamped with work. I may teach a workshop while I'm here.

I miss my friends, but I have to admit that making alittle money ain't so bad.

Send me emails and I'll send you love
