Trying to keep alive

Well I'm sitting here as sick as can be trying to think of somrthing interesting. I'm not ready for bed yet, since my medication isn't quite there and I don't want to wake up Paige with my sniffling.
I realize it's been awhile since I blogged, so I thought I would do a general update.
At KA, we have finally begun to do some real character work. The managers are allowing us to add small wardrobe pieces or props to help round out our characters. So far I've been asked to make two hats, a sash, a big timepiece, design make-up, and staffs, as well as lead improv games and warm-ups. Hope I'm not too busy!!! The gala opening is this Thursday night. It's supposed to be a media blitz, filled with celebrities and VIPs. Everything mentioned above has to be ready by then. Wheee!!
We got to meet the new production manager a little while ago. His name is Callum, I hope, and judging from his accent I'm guessing from Liverpool, England. He's a very nice guy and seems relly at ease. Most of the people I've talked to seem to have a lot of respect for him, maybe I'll get to chat with him more.
So on to more recent matters. Tonight was remarkably slow, due mostly to Cher having her show. Incedentally she came to ours last night. I only caught a quick glempse, but she looked very nice, allthough smaller than I had guessed.
Ray has developed a new opening sequence for us when we begin. If you haven't seen the show, before we open the lobby doors we do a small, choreographed sequence that can viewed through the glass wall by the guests waiting outside. It is supposed to set the mood by having a changing of the guard kind of feeling, but has never been to great. Now it's fairly elaborate, but I'm still not too sure if it's projecting the right kind of feeling. I guess we'll see.
