I am blogging on my iPod.
It is hot. To hot to go upstairs. Hot.
36 degrees celcius or 96 f
ugh.

Got off work at 9:00am today because some joker ran into a power pole. Completely knocked the power out in our building and almost knocked a pole over. We are wondering if we will actually have power back tomorrow. Not good since we have fittings Thursday and Friday. Eeps.

But it doesn't matter to much because we are leaving to go camping early Thursday morning. Yay!!!! Can't wait. Going to the island on the west coast close to ucluelet. Yippee!! We even found a sea kayaking place that have a kennel Minou and Birdie can stay in for the afternoon. If it stays this hot which it is supposed to I think we will just be lying on the beach everyday.

So hot. Hot.

Oh oh I forgot to say - my dress made it through the next round of judging - it is going to the big fashion show. The awards night is Sept 25th so now we have a long wait ahead of us where I start thinking I should go to the show... How often does one get to do this????
I posted on the designer forums asking if there was any local designers that would have a couch I could crash on - at least then I wouldn't have to worry about hotels and if they were nuts I could always go to a hotel.
I did a ticket search online - about $2000 return. Alot - but just low enough that it isn't out of the question..... I'd have to get the time off work - probably at least a week with the time change - they are a day ahead of us...
I wish someone could come with me and talk me into going.... it would be awesome to go with a friend....

In the meantime I am SICK. I have what we are calling the T2N1 virus - aka the Tron 2 virus. Everyone was getting sick, it was my last day friday. I stayed home because I felt so horrible. It's just a cold but I am starting suckerpunch on Monday and would LOVE to feel rested for suckerpunch.

The dictator and I booked a campsite for August long weekend mussel beach we've been there before and quite like it.... our first camping trip of the summer - which is quite pathetic but it wasn't possible any sooner with the hours I was working on Tron.... Hopefully it will be nice and relaxing - just laze around all day and soak up the sun.......

1. Dress made it to New Zealnd - judging happens on Saturday - whew close call - just made it in time. If we get through this round of judging it makes it to the BIG SHOW in sept....

2. Birdie (we think) fell down the stairs sunday night causing trauma to her liver. $600 vet bill later she is doing much better thank you!

3. Finished on Tron in the next few weeks (we finish shooting this week and then just have wrap) Next job is lined up and waiting - Suckerpunch!!! No break for me this summer but my bank account is happy about that.....

Other then that more of the same... FInished the sign for Gentille Alouette - I'll give more details when she is open. My newspaper dress is there on display along with some minoupitou doggie clothes for sale.....

My dress made it to New Zealand - totally late!!! But it is in the right country. We still have customs to deal with but OHHHH I hope it makes it there. They are kindly waiting as LONG as they possibly can... I don't know if they can wait much longer.....

fingers crossed.. It was nice to finally see an update on the tracking page I have been looking at twice a day for the past 2 months.....

Off today because of Canada Day holiday that we worked. Going to a hair appointment..... yippee... Then me and the girls are going to enjoy some of this HOT weather. AWESOME!!!!!!!!
