Talked with vendor about Gala thing. It seems the crew talked with the guy back at the shop when the returned the gear, who talked with the owner monday morning, who talked with D, my contact, and everyone exagerated the situation. When D actually talked to T & J who worked the event, both were like "huh, no, it wasn't that bad, just not what we were told it would be. It's a job. It happens" and other words that sounded like one of Seans posts. All is good. No extra money is needed. Apparently the problem was when they were asked to move the empty cases up to another floor for storage, the elevator operator wasn't there. They started carrying some of the empty cases (mind you, wood, big, heavy, but still, empty!) up, and then discovered one of the other elevators does actually work, although not supposed to be used. So they used it. Crisis averted. He was apologetic. All is good. I guess if there was no drama, I wouldn't be working in theater, right?

Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
YAY for Baby-fras! and no cancer for Jilli!
eep, another earthquake. This one was a lot less scary. Did anyone else notice that the cake Petunia made in Chamber of Secrets is quite similar to the cover of The Rolling Stones' "Let it Bleed"?
Yay, Jilli! That's quite a relief.
I took a long, much needed nap, and that has taken the edge off the pain. It still hurts, but I can move around without wincing.
We're having tortellini in a sage cream sauce for dinner. Yay, comfort food!

Moving without wincing is always a good thing.
I'm trying to decide if I feel like cooking. I should make something for lunch tomorrow. I've got a mango, and there's a tempeh mango salad that I really like, but peeling and cutting up a mango is a pain.
Yay Jilli!
Excellent news, Jilli!
I'm glad the nap helped, sj. And tortellini in sage cream sauce sounds delicious.
AAAAYYYIIIIII
Sham-Wow Vince is hawking a manual psuedo food processor called a "Slap Chop."
It's kind of scary. And he makes it sound sort of dirty.
I have made tempeh mango salad for lunch tomorrow. I feel all healthy now, even though I know this stuff has a bunch of fat. It's also got fruit, and soy, and scallions, which are a vegetable! And, um, curry powder and hot sauce, which I don't think have any nutritional benefits, but taste good. And a bunch of Veganaise.
So. Tempeh salad in pita. A clementine. Some baby carrots? This is a rather orange lunch. Maybe celery instead of carrots.
