okay,
we are going to see if this works!
I am on google maps.
Just keep zooming in at 196 mercer st.
Or you can probably search for 196 Mercer St, Seattle, WA, United States on google maps.
oops, never mind, it doesn't work... I will investigate.

A Picture Post
Snow, a view from my window
Beautiful blue skies shining on snow covered roofs
This is from today - its the view from the 7th floor window of our fancy library.
If you squint, you can kind of see the double helix cable, well at least the color on these photos is the actual color.
When the above sock was just beginning, it is sort of close to where its mate is right about now.
Ah, what I have been doing lately, here we have 3 pipes, in various states of being filled with lights. I think at this stage, we are just running the power cables and securing them so everything looks pretty.
This picture is very blurry!
Ode to the genie lift!
Look! A pile of tools, I should clean up!
That's Dave the Master Electrician, and in the background is the very colorful flyrail, there is no reason, someone just did it way back when they installed it.
Blurry cables!
An almost empty stage!Sorry
Hello my Pumpkins!
sorry it has been so long, first there was no internet, then there was internet but no will.
Oh and the time before that, no camera...
I just have a short update... I hope to do better later today or tomorrow!
Been working at the new job, its been fine, they gave me keys!
finished my sloppy sweat shirt sweater. I'll try to get someone to take a good photo of me in it, its possible to make me look like the fattest person in it, but really, just my boobs.
I am done with one DNA sock, and have started the other. I need to figure out this figure eight cast on of toe up socks, cuase the way I have been doing it is ridiculous. I did it before with different instructions, and it wasn't this hard. anyway, I am just about to start the heel on sock two. I'll try to take a picture that really shows the cool part of the pattern.
I am going to finish two half done pairs of socks for the April and May socks (in the one pair a month project) I have some tiger stripe yarn I dyed myself, and the army socks from the replica red cross pattern and yarn... I actually finished these socks, but when the second sock was done, I had lost the first ... and I have looked everywhere. I should just have enough yarn, I hope.... maybe I will order another kit to make sure.
I will be in the middle of tech when Sock Wars starts this year, I am still doing it, but I fully expect to die, hopefully with my semi respectable 2 kills per war record... I think I would get really bored if I have to knit 12 pairs like last years winner. still.
Okay, I am starving, and must eat breakfast and run off on my errands.
Today I need to go to the library, office depot, old navy, barnes and noble, the bank, then wash 2 loads of laundry, clean the living room and get my crap together for work next week. Oh yeah, I have to take out both the trash and recyling... I have found if I track down every scrap of trash and recycling I can find, I might not have to worry too much during the week.

My First Week
This week has been not too bad.
I think this job will go fine, they gave me keys and a work email, so its official. The first show looks easy, so its possible that I wont hate it right away.
I have to spend time trying to figure out why my internet is broken, I have a few ideas of what to try, and I might bug Sabine's husband. He does that sort of thing. Last time I had a problem, he confirmed that I was doing the right things, and that was very helpful.
ummmm, lets see, before I go home, umm... I will finish my sweater by monday! and the DNA socks should be done shortly after that. I have to fix my uncle's sock that I made him, and I think I know why his socks were too small. Its the whole gauge thing.
I got paid already for the Head Carpenter thing, it was nice. I should do it more often, if only for the money. I felt weird being the Junior person, with a senior crew, but it wont always be that way. Everyone I have talked to says its a bit of a mystery as to how people get chosen, I like to solve mysteries, but maybe I should let it go.
Tata for now.
Have a good weekend

A week without internet!
My internet at home is broken, I don't know why, its sort of a mystery!
I can check my union email, which is set up through outlook, so, it can connect, maybe not enough to make a website come up though?
The ISP guy thinks it might be my cable, my usb cable.... I wonder how to check that without buying a new one?
My Plan, is to build a new desktop, and get a good cheap laptop, but not until after the tech week check for my first show this season.... I don't make a million dollars, I would be very sad to have to buy computer things before I upgrade the computer... especially something as silly as a modem to computer USB, when my next computer will have an ethernet connection or something else. Boo
Anyway, I was apprehensive about this job a little, but... it seems all I needed to make this feel like the best decision ever is for them to give me keys.
I say again WooHoo keys.. I also get to do the things I think are important, well I do have to work and all but, I am my own boss to some degree, so, I can finish mopping the back hallway... tomorrow, I say mopping, but really, I am scrubbing the corners and fighting the glued down with water dust layer almost everywhere... no one expects a theatre to be spotless... but an effort can be made.
So, speaking of my new job... I am checking my email, and updating this blog from my work account. I also have a work email too... but I haven't figured out how to get on it... I guess I get to see the IT guy tomorrow.... after the meeting and before the mopping?
