Yes. I think some Ollie/Bruce porn would help me fall asleep.
You are SO WEIRD.
Do you think Ollie has a lube arrow?
Now, see, THAT is what's weird. No, I don't think Bruce and Ollie are anything like an OTP or even a regular thing (for whatever passes for "regular" for the Bat), but you KNOW they have hot grudge-fuck sex once in a while. Guh.
Actually, a large part of me was once convinced that Ollie and Carter had some grudge fucking going on. Bruce, OTOH, is Clark's bitch.
Bruce is *totally* Clark's bitch, though he tries to make Clark think it's the other way around.
But tonight? Tonight I want Ollie/Bruce.
But I want to fall asleep more than anything, damn it.
My god, you people have babies.
I have no idea why that's so weird tonight.
I need to go to bed.
eta:
Bruce is *totally* Clark's bitch
STOP SAYING THAT.
I saw cargo gauchos in a store window the other day.
what is "standard" rehearsal procedure
Sophia, in my experience professional theatres use costumes for 10 of 12 tech rehearsals more often than not. Really, it's necessary for lighting as much as anything else. And tech includes timing/working quick changes. If rehearsals hit a point where it's just fixing problem spots then only costume pieces needed for the action/quick changes are used. (Steppenwolf, Goodman) Coats and things that are part of the action are used in rehearsal well before tech.
It seems to be academic situations where I run into the "tech rehearsal then dress rehearsal and never the twain shall meet" approach. This makes sense when you only have 3 hours to tech the show, but if you're doing 10 of 12's I don't get that.
the artisitic director, the production manager and the director seem flabbergasted that we would even consider trying to tech in costumes
As a lighting designer, I hate teching with actors in white t-shirts or whatever else they may show up in.
Steph, for insomnia attacks like that, I try to spend at least some time in bed doing relaxation breathing. Even if it doesn't put me to sleep, at least my body gets some benefit out of it. Hope you did manage to get to sleep, eventually!
am staying home today. yucky. honestly I think I will get in at least a half day of working from home, but right now - I go back to sleep.
Thanks for the info aurelia-- I am glad to hear from a lighting designer! (and it is an academic setting).
I am wondering if part of the reluctance in an academic setting is that most of them I have been in have a "part-time" costume staff, so they don't want them to have to come in on the weekends?
When I was a student in high school doing plays, we always did a tech with important costume pieces (shoes, hats, etc.) and quick changes included. Even the Q to Q included this stuff.
I found out today that my employers' health insurance will cover an abortion for your dependent teenager if she gets pregnant, but won't cover prenatal care and delivery if she decides to have the child. This just seems weird to me - does anybody know about their employer policy, or would you be willing to look? I wonder if it's industry standard or my employer being butt-headed.
Plei, I have a request; please, oh please put up the 'angsty' one of Lily where she is facing right and her face is shadowed in a very gothy way. The House of reason needs its dose of Goth-Lily!
I shall put the request in to the photomaster!
(I think it's in the queue of to-do pictures.)
Emily, you and Hil totally need that.
