So, Rocky Horror went great last night. The only thing I get messed up on is floorshow, but that really is everyone. I think it will take a while to get used to everyone and get a good floorshow going, but the rest of Rocky always goes awesome. I have almost a complete Frank jacket but I need to actually pin or do something else to attach my patches to it - right now I just have them pinned on and I have to be careful when wearing it, around other people XD
I so love playing Frank-N-Furter!
The house is also coming along OK. We don't really have the furniture to fill it up, and I think me and Zero are still stuck in a 450 square foot of space mindset. We're still messing it up in the living and dining room, while totally not using the kitchen or second bedroom, or basement for that matter.
It rained pretty hard here a few days ago, and there was some crap stuck in our gutter which caused a large pouring of water on one corner of the house; subsequently, a bit of water leaked into our basement. We had to go out in the rain and get the gutter clear of crap, which didn't take very long. I'm worried about a crack in the basement; luckily we're going to be calling about our home warranty for our AC unit (fan is constantly on, even when the ac itself isn't on) so we'll ask them about where the water came in as well. It never leaked when it rained before anywhere in the basement and we aren't in a flood area either. In any case it wasn't much, and we have a drain down there too so its all good.
So, I had posted an entry to the community Customers_Suck about the weird lady I had on the train who was schizophrenic and all the weird things she said. ... And my post got deleted because the moderator said I was making fun of schizophrenic people. What the fuck? I get a lady on the train who refused to take her medication (which obviously would have kept her sane) and I wrote about the silly things she said to me - and this is deemed off topic and deletable? Please.
I was wondering why, with so many members now, the community doesn't seem to get as many posts. Customers_Suck was supposed to be a place to rant about the stupid, silly, odd, whatever, customers we all get at work, just like Bad_Service is supposed to be a place to complain about the opposite end of the counter. I have seen so many posts over the years that SHOULD have been deleted; I was appalled at the rudeness of the moderator her/itself. Snarky bint moderator posted a snide comment, then deleted my post, presumably so others couldn't read her bitching me out.
I thought thats what the "customers suck snark" community was for; to bitch about the people who posted stuff to C_S, if others thought they were in the wrong or whatever. *shrugs*
Fuck that community. Obviously they are curtailing free speech there now, and I don't want to be a part of it if that is the case. I'm leaving the community as soon as this post is up. It is quite a shame, because it used to be an awesome community. I've been a member of C_S for a few years now, and have made a few friends from it.

Well in less than two weeks I'll be in California, watching my brother graduate from Marine Corps boot camp. I can't wait to go! It is just at such a sucky time, because the Rocky Horror convention is going on the week prior to David's graduation...And unfortunetly I can't afford to call off TWO work trips. And I feel really BAD about it, because Rocky does mean a lot to me - but my brother means even more to me. I mean, come on! He's my water brother. Grok it? FOR REALS!
Work sucks, as usual. Although I did read two books on my last trip here, and I think they helped me to keep my sanity. I read "A Brief History of Time" by Stephan Hawking and also a book on Nostradamus' predictions from the past and for the future. Quite interesting reads for thrift store finds!
The Stephan Hawking book rocked. srsly! ya wai! It was so easy to read, I went through it in two days of working. I just hated the people (passengers) who said to me "WOW! I can't believe you are reading that!". I just would sort of give them "the look". Know what I mean?
I have some juicy Customers Suck stories that I'll be posting sometime soon, too. Hehe.
