What's this? Embroidery?

I have no money to buy a stitch-it kit, so I learnt the basic stitches and had a wild time anyway.

curli gets a job and other random things

So I finally got a job. The call came today, and now I'm the first hired employee of still unopened Howard Johnson hotel in Rigaud, QC. In fact, I start tomorow at one o'clock. I think we're officially opening on the first, but seeing as the hotel has just been built, there's alot of cleaning to do and I've been called in to help. I guess this solves the earlier dillema of what I'm going to do with my summer now that Thea's off to camp and I have a phone-allergy. Now I'll have something to do, and what's more, I'll be getting paid for it. :)

Unfortunetly, work tomorow means a possibility of an awkward moment between myself and a friend I haven't seen or heard of since May. She lives in Ontario but she's in the province visiting her cousins at the moment. We were supposed to hang out today, but she got held up in Montreal, so we rescheduled for tomorow. Then I got the call from Howard Johnson. I decided that it was impossible to blow off my first day at work and keep my job for long, so I told them I would be there. However, I would hate for my friend to think that I'm deliberatly avoiding her or something. After all, last time I went to her house things got a little strange because she got busted, and sold me out for things I didn't do. I'm not entirely sure she's aware that I know she told her parents about things I haven't done, but the fact of the matter is that I haven't heard of her since then and I'm getting a tad worried our relationship will get awkward and spoil. Then again, I can't say in all honnesty that I tried very hard to keep in touch after a very strange conversation with my mom about whether or not I drink and do drugs. I guess I'll just have to wait and see.

The utter unimportance of being Evan

So, The Importance of Being Earnest just finished it's last show, so I'm finally done working on it. The show rocks, but it would have been so much better had our director not been such an ass. Stupid Evan. He got so bad and annoying that the club decided to never again use him as backstage crew or anything administrative, and we're never going to cast him again either. He's an unreliable jerk, even the parents will tell you so.

As an example, after the last show it is customary to clean up the venue to make it easier to move everything out the day after. This show wasn't an exception to the rule, and Evan told us to make it speady. After all, everyone wants to go home or go party afterwards, so why spend forever cleaning up? This was a perfectly acceptable request. Or it would have been, had he helped as well. Instead, after the show Evan the Asshole decided to make out with his girlfriend instead, just outside the door where we could all see him. Way to go, director man. Way to help out the team. It would have been bad enough had he not come inside once people were nearly finished and yelled at them to hurry up because he wanted to go home. Well, he can just go die in a fire, because he's one of the biggest assholes I'll ever meet. I could go on, but I hope this example will suffice.

Sadly, although I know I won't have to work on any youth plays with him anymore, I will have to continue doing restaurant murder mysteries and mascotting for childrens parties with him. God, I'm in for a treat.

Well, here end my random rant about the ass named Evan. Mainly because I have to go. Maybe I'll continue this later.

So begins the summer of boredom

Aiee! My summer began a month ago, and so far everything has been going marvelously. However, off Thea goes to camp and starting Sunday I'm fearful that the summer will take a turn for the worst. It's not that I don't have other friends, it's just that none of them live quite so close by and seeing as I basically have a phone allergy, I don't call many others. I'm hoping that I'll be able to get off my butt and do things. And if worst comes to worst, I'll craft all summer and be happy anyways. :)
