Why theatre is dumb today

I dragged my ass out of bed at 6:30 this morning to get down here and focus lights at 8AM. To start off, there were no spikes on the floor for the furniture so the lighting designer spent half an hour placing spikes. Then we focused the lights for an hour and a half. (It's a very small plot.) Then we took a break, and worked on the cues for awhile. We had a lunch break, then came back to find that the director showed up and moved everything around. Naturally. So we worked on the cues for a few more hours, then spent half an hour refocusing on the moved furniture. There's nothing that annoys me quite like doing work twice because somebody didn't do their job.

Driving sucks

I hate driving. Actually, I hate all the other people driving. The people who don't follow the traffic rules. The people who run red lights, don't yield, switch lanes without signaling, take up more than one lane when driving, park in places that block the street, and talk on their cell phones while doing all that and more. It seems like every time I drive, some stupid fucker nearly causes an accident. I wish we had a subway system.
