No real reason, well, maybe because I had nothing to say, but to be honest I've just been trying to desperately do a certain page without any luck, until that is my husband rescued me, like he always does.
It now looks pretty damn good, but unfortunately I can't take the credit. Well I can a bit. Actually I've just received my Photoshop for Windows & Macintosh in the mail, so that will clearly be thoroughly read over by the end of tonight.....NOT!!
Well ok I'll read some now, then make myself a coffee, minus cookie, only because I haven't got any and then I will move on to read my brand new "Heat", which has also just arrived in the mail.
You got to love Colleen and Miss Kensington for getting me that subscription, it truly is a wonderful thing.
So today I have been to the office, yes people, THE OFFICE. It does exist and I DO go...only sometimes. Actually it was a lovely afternoon spent with my pal Ty, who is very very stressed and I think I helped somehow as she seemed a lot more cheery when I left her. We've decided that even if there isn't anything pressing for me to do with regard to the theatre, I should still go in every Wed, just so that we can have the excuse to catch up, go over some work and then go have a glass of wine. The latter of course being the REAL reason.
I think the last 6 months have been rather hectic for everyone at the Vineyard. Especially for Jodi our General Manager who not only has been hospitalised a couple of times after passing out due to her asthma attacks, she now has two broken ribs that she sustained whilst COUGHING. I swear, only Jodie could break two ribs by coughing up a lung, I wouldn't mind but she's tiny, a little teeny weeny thing, how the hell did she do that???
So my girlfriends from London Sarah and Debs were going to a Combat glass tonight. No doubt some kind of girlie aerobics made to sound tough, but I will email them and find out what it is.
Oh yeah Happy Passover to all my Jewish friends out there. For those ignoramous's who think, (like me) that Passover is a good time for holidays, boozing and stuffing ones face with chocolate eggs....let me enlighten you.
Passover came to symbolize the Exodus from Egyptian bondage, which meant more than any other single historical event in the life of the ancient Hebrews.
Passover marks the first time that a people challenged the institution of slavery and dared to defy their mortal master to serve a greater Master.
The Seder, which is held in traditional households on the first two nights of Passover, highlights the festival. The entire family is seated around the table with the father as teacher and the family as students; it is a class in audio-visual education, each object on the table representing a symbol of the freedom lesson.
The egg by the way represents an additional sacrifice, but it has also been interpreted to signify the Jewish people - just as the egg hardens when heated, so has the Jewish will to survive become more resolute with each added persecution.
So there you go, bit of information for you.
Right I have books to read, I'm off....
Well I do apologise, late page today and none for yesterday.
