I worked with a gal who was afraid of people in animal costumes. When we had The Easter Bunny come entertain the kiddies one year she could not wait on her tables if The Bunny was in the same room as her section.
Natter 62: The 62nd Natter
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I have a pretty clear memory of a ventriloquist's dummy trying to flirt with me at a show when I was five or so (it might have been Jeff Dunham). I was humiliated and ran out of there before the show even ended.
Random rehearsal musing:
Tom Irwin says "I want your soul" in a way that makes me want to give it to him.
I find masks scary. Not the nice Venetian ones (unless I stare at them too long), but the big wooded ones.
Another 10 hours day at uni.
I love the studying, but damn, there's just too much of it. I skipped the regular-one-hour-work I'm doing on Weds, just to get 45 more minutes of sleep. I fell asleep with 2 history articles in my bed last night, past midnight.
Good morning, Americans, and I hope you'll read this post after getting enough sleep.

And I can't even say I stole the Buffista sleepdom.
I'll second that gronk.
I was at work for 12 hours yesterday (6:45 to 6:45).
Guess what I get to do again today?
Aw jeez, Anne.

What makes things even better is that we have a four-hour workshop scheduled in the middle of prime deadline season. Argh.
I've been reading about Kune kune pigs (Maori breed from NZ) who are actually... kind of cute.
Still no decision on my auditing the next 3D course. I shall have to call & whine. Also a very unfruitful discussion with an Unemployment auditor who seemed to be fixed on the idea that I was trying to pull a fast one with regards to my benefits. You know, if I WAS, I'd at least like to have formed the conscious intention to.
So I've got to call the guy who handles Section 30 Unemployment verification at my college and try to get a plain English explanation of what's going on.
