Thank god for friends

For the last two weeks I think I've spent a third of my time in New Brunswick (more specifically in Walters Hall with an equal amount of time in my office and the costume shop), in NY either shopping for Victor/Victoria, at the theatre where it will be performing or at Andrew's, or in transit from one place to the other. Sleep should be somewhere in there--I think it falls mostly during transit time or at Andrew's...

This show is mammoth. I was originally supposed to have an assistant. She bailed. The costume count is about 100. As things are choreographed, requests and changes come up. I still waiting on one actor's measurements. It is a huge load, and I struggle with fears that it will not get done.

But that's where friends come in. I'm much further ahead in the building of clothes than I thought I'd be, thanks in part to Andrew's four hours of help today in addition to Greta agreeing to stitch a few things together for me.

Busier than ever, but never more content.
