it's expected he's gone.
So....justin kinda quit yesterday. which didn't surprise me. this stupid job is a lot of stress without much artistic payoff because you're trying to work around arlington county's fucked up politics who pretty much have their phasers set to "fail" when aimed at american century theatre. who are some of the nicest people i've ever encountered. rhonda. jack, jean. so nice. it kinda reminded me why i started doing this crap in the first place. but then jared mcdickpants shoves us in a corner of the scene shop that has 3 and a half working lights, and rose the producer won't fucking shut up long enough to get anything done, and manny, moe, jack, curly and shemp show up unnannounced to "help" build the set. it's just a clusterfuck. and i'm not as happy as i could be and of course i'd like this to be fun but let's face it. it's not. i'm almost at the halfway point of pushing my rock up the hill. at least when it rolls itself back down i'm just going to shrug and go "meh" and try to find a smaller hill for the next rock. the fact of the matter is, i've been concentrating more on making my stuff and i've been getting nice generally positive feedback from that and that's what i'd really like to do i think. i hate the drive to arlington, i hate the scene shop, i hate the community theatre feel that they're all satisfied with. it's such crap. they could do much better things but it's not going to happen in that space and i don't have the time or the drive or the knees for that matter to help them along. so until my calander says it's the 17th of march, i will hobble along as amicably as i can. get as much done as i can, focusing on two brigh spots- the ted leo show and the art brut show. and maybe going to NYC to see chris mcd. i am sad to lose justin. i think were the situation different, we probably could work well together and he could have fun. although, craigslist...this still puts you at a zero-for-idunnohowmany times you've let me down.
