Done like Dinner

So are final show ended up being canceled due to late trains. Fitting.
So my last day in the loops was spend organizing costumes, dismantling my prompt book and saying farewell to cast and crew. We toasted off with a couple of drinks, I got on a bus and now I'm back in Vanland.
I'm done.
Now I'm back in Van and getting ready to move onto the next adventure...
Thanks for reading this blog and keeping me company as I tried to navigate the madness. I think I may have stayed in better contact with some people while I was out of town rather than when I was home.
I'm not sure what I'll do with this blog at this point. If I do continue blogging, I'll have to re-vamp this page or start a new one. I'll be sure to let you folks know.
Until then,
Thanks for the adventure Kamloops. Keep well all.
Peace

last show

Today feels a bit weird. Last show.
Cards are done, tickets are booked, and now I just need to finish my packing and strike my stuff at the theatre.
I'm excited to be home and still a piece of me is feeling sentimental about saying goodbye. I'll get over it I'm sure.
Six months is just such a long time. Its hard to imagine it being over.
There are just hours left of this adventure.

peace

Welcome to October

Less than a week left here in the old loops.
I've been trying to think up some finalizing, all encompassing anecdote to wrap up this blogging business, but my brain has been failing me. I think if there is wisdom to be taken from this adventure then I am still too close to see it, or simply too tired. I am still holding out hope that there is some sort of golden learning to extrapolate from this madness, but only time will tell I guess.

I made it back to Van for a few days. The move was quick and painless and I am grateful for that. Thanks!
I intended to do some unpacking and reorganizing while I was home, but I couldn't bring myself to break the plastic seal on my belongings. Just the thought of unleashing bugs into my Vancouver home sends me to the brink of a panic attack and the risk just doesn't seem worth it. I know I cleaned everything very throughly, but believe it or not, I'm not perfect; so what if I missed something or didn't do it right? I've decided to wait till my steamer returns to me; so I can steam the beegeebies out of everything.

I spent most of my time at home while in Van. Catching up with the cat and my roommate. It was restful and homey and just what I needed.
I got back to Kamloops yesterday, got some errands done for the week and then spent an obscene amount of time browsing Michael's crafts. I went in to get some closing night card supplies and then 2 hours later I was still there. I get over stimulated in that store cause there is so much to look at and so many projects I want to make. Also, now that its Oct, there is Halloween EverYwHerE and I was thinking of all the cool decorations we could make for our party. Did you know that Martha Stewart makes crow decorations you can stick on your walls? Forget Halloween, I just want a Martha Stewart Murder themed bedroom! I refrained from buying anything other than my card supplies. I don't want to be packing more stuff. Besides, there's a Michael's in Van now; so I can go shopping when I get back.

Well I'm rambling now, I should get back to my cards.
5 more days!
peace
