The home stretch

Only four weeks left of classes remain. And then the odd week and a half of exams and reading days. Not much time at all. I panic slightly when I think of who much is yet to be done on the dance concert. A mere two weeks away from tech. All of Paulettes costumes are built. Unfortunely the finishing of the costumes is even more time consuming than the acutal construction. Everyone loves the colors. That at least is encouraging. I have one fewer piece to build for Julia as well. One of the dancers broke her foot and is out of comission for the rest of the semester. in our department they certianly talk about taking care of yourself and health being a primary concern. Maybe the acting program is a little more sincere, but sometimes I feel as though the tech program may just be blowing hot air--much like the air ducts in Walters Hall. It has been beautiful the last few days--getting close to 70. Of course that means the building needs to be close to 90.

I finished distressing a garment for David. I still cannot fathom how old it got in 3 hours. It had been a brand new coat only this morning.
Tomorrow I am blessed with only 2 more fittings. However, I promised a former student I would build a turban for her up coming show. As well as show her cast makeup this weekend. And yet I sit here at a computer instead of getting work done...

As a side note, I was told today I was born in the wrong time period. I have an excellent Victorian figure...
