Duck and cover!


Because the shit is about to hit the fan. The show I was told would be completely done before I even arrived isn't. I was told my hands were completely clean of this project...so I didn't push to be kept in the loop. I was told my cohort in the costume shop would only have to do a little shopping for one character, spray paint a helmet and maybe coordinate fittings. It shouldn't have been an issue. They hired a man to build most of the show. Today my cohort went to pick the finished costumes. Today was the costume parade. Today...the costumes were not ready.

I have a boss who...I am slowly discovering...only says he doesn't want to micromange because that is what he desparately wants to do. Unfortunately, in an effort to NOT micromanage, several co-workers feel as thought they suddenly need to become mind readers. Not pleasant.

This poor little show...it is preventing the next one from getting done. I have two weeks to completely finish the Kabuki-esque show. I fear I may be putting in longer days than I want to. Pity too...when I suddenly seemed to have developed quite the social life.

Current social dilemma...First Friday...getting pissed with co-workers and look at free art...or just getting pissed with a new friend in one of the cities bordering Honolulu...
