Wednesday marked my final day working in the costume shop! I have mixed feelings about this. On the one hand: yay, no work! I can focus on preparing for the upcoming school year; researching for shows, drawing, getting our finances in order, cooking, and generally having fun! On the other hand, we need all the work we can get and I feel a slight discrepancy between how much we were told we'd work and how much we actually did. But then I go lounge by the pool or curl up with a good book and remember the joys of summer vacation and the complaints float away.
