The madness

It continues. After the insanity of filming came a day of relative calm on Thursday and then Canada Day on Friday. The bbq at Mel's house was good, although I ate far too much cake, and the garlic bread that I took turned out (after having been put in the oven for 20 mins and looked forward to by everyone) to be bread, sans garlic butter. Cue a complaint at the IGA on Saturday, which resulted in me being given another garlic bread and some free chocolate cupcakes, which I then ate too many of again and felt rather sick in the night as a result. I never learn.

The weekend has been taken up with trying to track down volunteers who said they'd work at the Sea Vancouver festival next week and are in my department, but who now seem to have gone awol and are refusing to answer my e-mails. If only people would be civil enough to send a reply back, even telling me to bugger off, that would be good. Of course as it's been the holiday weekend ringing people is less than useless, as they're all out. Grrrr!!! I also get the odd person e-mailing with inane requests and suggestions, none of which I can do anything about. But some of my volunteers are lovely and the whole thing should be fine once it gets going. At the moment I seem to be parking captain, joint volunteer check-in captain and dock crew, so my four days of festival are going to be sheer and utter exhaustion.

However, there are things to look forward to. Monday brings some shopping with Christie, as long as I don't have any work. Tuesday brings a date - yes, a date! - with the cute guy I met on my film shoot. Ok, so it's not really a date yet, he's just coming round to my house. Then depending on the weather, we'll decide what to do. Let's hope he's not an axe murderer, seeing as he now has my address. If I don't post in a while, dear reader, make enquiries. I'm giving Christie his description and phone number just in case ;o)

Above all, I need sleep. So I'm off to bed. Night!
