Still in Toronto. It was unseasonally warm when we first got here, but it is getting cold now. Nates parents drove up to visit for a couple days, it was wonderful to get to see family for the holidays, even if we had to work. This show schedule (2 shows everyday at noon and 4pm) is starting to ride everyone's nerves. I'm hearing lots of references to the movie "Groundhog Day" in relation to our show schedule. Other than the repetitiveness of the shows, Toronto is great. Lots to do. We went out with the crew to the Underground (a bar) which had a great live band. Tonight Nate and I are having dinner at the restaurant at the top of the CN tower (I had to go shopping just to get something nice enough to wear).
Off to work now. Got to enjoy the next few days, this is our head electricians last city, so starting next week (in Syracuse, NY, USA) we will be severely short handed (down 2 electricians). Once he's gone, its all work and no play for the rest of us, at least for a while.

I seem to have misplaced the cable to connect my camera to the computer, so no pics for a while.

We are currently in Toronto. We are staying in the hotel this week because the people at the building are morons. Seems that notifying them ahead of time that our show has two RVs which will require space and power wasn't specific enough. THey were quite suprised to learn that people expect to LIVE in the Rvs. Seems that is not allowed at the sky dome.

So, we make dinner in the RV after work, than haqve to go back to the hotel to go to sleep, then back to the RV for breakfast in the morning. Stupid.

Oh well. And Nate was going to get me a new tattoo for xmas, but since we had to stay in the hotel (and put down a $250 deposit to get the dogs in) I think I'll have to put it on hold.

Darnit.

Gotta go now. Tomorrow is xmas eve, we have 2 shows.

RIP Peter Boyle
WHile I am not a fan of "Everybody Loves Raymond", I loved Boyle in "Young Frankenstein" and his guest spot on the X-Files was award winning.

I have "Young Frankenstein" on DVD. Think I'll watch it today.

Just updated my amazon.com wish list. I am such a geek. It's all comic books and horror movies.

Oh well.

If anyone wants to get me a xmas gift, click on the icon below.

My Amazon.com Wish List
If we ever have a kid (which is very unlikely) I am totally buying this shirt for the little rugrat.

Got our first flat tire last night on the way from Moline, Ill to Youngstown, OH.

We had a spare, we had tools, what we didn't have was a jack.

After spending, way too much money on 2 new tires, we have arrived in Ohio.

Can't we just skip this week and go to Toronto now?

Rio Rancho, New Mexico...

The drive from Salt Lake was beautiful.
Here are some pics from the trip.




We stopped at a rest stop just south of Moab where Nate drove one of his RCs.






We also stopped at four corners, the spot where New Mexico, Arizona, Colorado, and Utah meet.


I love this photo.



That's it for now.I've got pics from our crew party too, but right now I need to get ready for work. We've had lots of issues this week, since the building we are playing only opened 2 weeks ago. Everything is so new, people don't even know how to turn the lights off.

Salt Lake City...

No internet access, lots of mormons, and we had a work call.

This week sucks.

Next week, though, in Rio Rancho, Nate and I are staying in the hotel so we should have internet access. Plus, no kiddie shows, and we're having a crew party.

My birthday is in less than a month. I need a new ipod, so if anyone wants to send me gift cards for the apple store, I'll be your best friend! (I could use a new computer too, but that will have to wait till I get a tax return.)

Halloween Pictures!

We had our Halloween party at the hotel here in Sacramento. Here are the pics I took.

me, nate, and Nadal went as white trash (we figured it would be fitting since we own homes on wheels).





















Picture TIme! Here are pics from San Francisco.

This is Nate with Alcatraz in the background.


Here I am at Pier 39 (those are seals in the background).


Here I am at the Rainforest Cafe.


We went to the Maritime museum.




Then in San Jose we went to the Winchester Mystery House with some of the guys from the crew.





Here are some pics from the RV park last week. Now that there is a couple from concessions with two pugs, our dogs have playmates.
