Tutus Galore

Pity I didn't take any pictures of our completed tutus. We are in the process of final fittings for the next show. The big project was six Swan Lake tutus for the men. In addition I had a night shirt, robe, pj set and a few pairs of pj pants. To date, the robe and night shirt has been cut (as in removed from the show). Both of these only needed the hems finished. Two purchased items that had extensive alterations (which were already done before today's fitting) were cut from the show too. C'est la vie. I still get paid for the hours put in. They look beautiful nonetheless and I am very tempted to finish the robe anyway and buy it from the shop. I have a bad reputation when it comes to robes...they never seem to last that long...

Very exciting news on the job front, though I hesitate in saying anything more than there is exciting news until after my phone interview later this week. Sending a resume to this particular job was a spur of the moment sort of thing. Never would have thought....

The girls continue to be girls. We had a brief meeting this afternoon about appropriate work attire. Not like the scene shop: closed toed shoes, hair tied back and the like. No. This was a "don't wear your bikini tops to work, this isn't a summer camp" sort of talk. I'm surprised there were no accidents in the scene shop today with those three young'ens wandering around like that. I stand by my earlier statement that 4 years is a big different with this age group.

I should be finishing up the designs for Cinderella. Since we tech in 12 days and all. But insomnia will carry me through the evening and that grad school resolve will keep me awake during fitting and meetings tomorrow.

Melancholy comes and goes. Now mostly because I miss people.
