hrm

Cookies went over well, I mean at least people bought them, and thank goodness I made a double batch plus the muffin things cuz there was not much left. Spent the first half of the show in the teeny tiny box office, could hear well but would have liked to see. Not as many people showed up as we would have hoped, still thought it was ok but apparently we really didn't make enough. Pretty bummed about that. Wonder what else was going on tonight? 75% of Fairfield's bands were THERE!

Was hoping for some sort of pat on the back for working my butt off with the whole tickets/concessions thing, but I guess they were bummed about the earnings and therefore not in a back patting mood, plus we had to scramble to get out cuz it had gone over time.

A bunch of the other DJ's got to go up and announce the acts, not like I would have been able to that AND the door, but at one point the plan was to do something where they had all the DJ's at least stand up or possibly get up on stage, but they didn't do that either. (probably because it was so late) So kind of feel like I did a ton of stuff and didn't even get a plug for my show, but whatever. It wasn't the point really, but somehow I'm left feeling disgruntled and bummed, when it should have been triumphant what was pulled off with the amount of time and resources we had.

G is off in KC to pick up something for work that they need by Mon, that wasn't even going to ship till Mon. So I am home alone and it's freezing and rainy and my head is cranking and my heart is sad and there's no one to talk to/unwind. It feels like after a performance and we would go out to eat at McDs or Torino's or something but even if people are off doing that, I didn't perform on stage, just behind the scenes, so it's not like they would think of me for that. Very disconnected and frustrating.

I'm pretty sure later there may be some sort of thank you for everything I did sort of sentiment expressed, but that doesn't help me sleep tonight. meh.
