Blame It on Peter Pan and the Point

After working the Craft Faire from 5:45am-1:00pm, I was greatly relieved that I did not have to go to Andrew's movie set where I was supposed to be helping with food. So Xiomara and I ran some errands--including Home Depot, where we picked out Cara's wedding colors and the most ridiculous names for colors. Some good ones:

Poison Pen, Vanished, Naive Green, A.S.A.P., Yesterday, Naughty Neutral, Disco Ball (which was gray), Smarty Pants, R.S.V.P., White High-Hiding (what the...), Tusk Tusk, Garden Gnome, Main Street U.S.A., Alakazam, Shakespeare (right underneath Punk Rock), and It's Trivial

Anyway, then we went to Berry Cool, which was probably the most productive moment of the day....

We returned to the apartment, tried to get some work done, ate leftover pizza for dinner, dressed up, and went over to Mayers to see the Peter Pan Torrey play.

The FAIL? We were trying to buy tickets at the door. At 7:20pm.

"If you don't have a ticket, come back tomorrow!" we heard from the front of the line.

Xiomara jinxed us, I'm pretty sure. But she came up with a plan for what to do now that we were all dressed up (in each other's dresses) with nowhere to go. We did have a Wall-E premiere (in our living room) to attend later, but in the meantime, we decided to go take pictures with her fancy art camera.

Since her studio and the Production Center are in the same vicinity and since she has access into the PC because of the Point, she showed me around the Production Center. EPIC FAIL, which is about all I can say. But it was hilarious.

The photos--win? Minus some embarrassing ones. Oh dear.

And of course Wall-E. During which I fell asleep. FAIL.

And all this can be blamed on the Point and Peter Pan. Somehow.

Horrible Way to Return to a Blog...

I've been meaning to come back to this at some point, so here I go, even though the only people who read this are probably the ones I've already filled in:

My house in YL is fine--ashy, dusty, etc., but still standing. The fire came up to the houses above mine on the north hillside, and some embers jumped and ignited on houses east of mine. Fortunately, the firefighters--who are doing an absolutely incredible job--set backfires to counter the flames coming over the hill, so everything seems okay where my house is.

UNfortunately, the fire both burned houses of people we know and is continuing to burn in Brea and up into Diamond Bar. My little sister's friend lost his whole house. His family was gone at the time the fire started, so on the up-side, they are safe. On the down-side, however, they didn't have any time to grab anything and have lost everything they owned.

Kind of puts things like Torrey papers, class schedules, and ant infestations into perspective.
