Getting worn a little thin...

I have bags under my eyes. They are big and dark and I can't hide them with makeup and even if I manage good sleep they don't go anywhere. I'm tired.

Someone stole my black flats out of the dryer. So now I am down to 4 pairs of shoes, 2 of which have started smelling quite terrible. I really wish I had packed more clothing. I have this pair of perfect black heels sitting at home right now... why didn't I bring them?

One of my cast members is in trouble for flirting with a girl who is 14-going-on-28 (if you catch my drift). I was supposed to call him at 8:30 this morning to tell him to go down to security by 9am - that way they could surprise him with a confrontation of the issue. I set the alarm, but forgot to turn it "on," so now I'm on today's shit list for Security and the Cruise Director.

*sigh*

Also, my daily schedule today looks like this:

August 11, 2011
At Sea 3

12:15PM - Captain's Club Backstage Tour
2:25PM - Lemon Squeezy Mic Check
3:00PM - Lemon Squeezy Matinee
3:45PM - Laszlo & Claudia working with lights
4:15PM - Laszlo & Claudia working with sound (without band, though you may be setting up your stations at this time)
4:30PM - Laszlo & Claudia Tech
6:00PM - Sound Check Sue's One Woman Show
7:15PM - Laszlo & Claudia Performance #1
9:15PM - Laszlo & Claudia Performance #2
10:15PM - Sue's One Woman Show
11:15PM - Sizzle (exact start time will be determined by when the ship crosses under the bridge)

And that just drains any energy left in me right out of me. I need Warnemude to come faster so I can have a break.

I have to tell our lighting technician - a grown woman about 6 years older than me (has been working on cruise ships since before I was in college), that people are complaining about her hygiene standards. Strategy: Quick like a bandaid. I'll let you know how that one goes.

  1. ay, ay, ay! Such a bunch of bad things to come all at once---and while you're exhausted! So sorry, my dear--if empathy helps. I will certainly be sending prayers and positive thoughts your way. Keep us posted!

  2. I know you’re tired, Mad. Hang in there. We’re all pulling for you.
    Is there a way to get stuff to you? The lack of proper outfitting is really a shame.
