That feeling when you're in an experimental theatre production and you've been beheaded, so you take your head and go sit in the corner.

I've had so much fun directing this show.

Three actors wearing black shirts with their heads inside sky blue cones with clouds painted on them. They sit against a wooden background. Two of them are holding basketballs in their laps and the third has their basketball on the floor next to them.

I made butternut squash coconut noodle soup for dinner. It was excellent. Recipe from the New York Times.

I can't get over how pretty the set for the show I'm directing is.

We took the set from last year's musical, added a few elements, and gave the whole thing a facelift.

#theatresky
A large structure with two staircases leading to a door on a tall platform. There is also a door below the platform. The structure is painted in a patchwork of various browns and has flower garlands winding up the railings. There are two lamps and a coatrack, also with flower garlands, a large and fancy white chair, and four boxes, three of which are painted in a patchwork of colors and the fourth which is painted like dark wood. There is a tall drum against one of the staircases and an arched opening on either side of the lower door that have curtains also in a patchwork pattern.

9.1 came home with a bookmark he made in art class.

He is definitely my kid.

A bookmark that says, "The angels have the phone box." There is a picture of a blue box at the bottom and two yellow figures surrounding it.

Vegan butter chicken. Does it taste like regular butter chicken? I don't know; I've never had it.
A pot with vegan butter chicken made from tofu. It is in an orangey sauce.

An orange and white cat sits on a paisley pillow. There is a silver shark hat on its head, and it looks like the cat is being eaten.

Currently singing "A Little Priest" from Sweeney Todd to my cat, while harboring no illusions that he wouldn't eat me if he has the chance. #theatresky
The cat in question, standing on the kitchen counter. He has orange and white fur.

After many hours, two sets of full-size black sheets (because I screwed up cutting the first one), four spools of thread, one time taking apart my sewing machine to fix it after it broke, and using more of my fabric stash than I might have expected, I finished 17 sashes for my play.
#theatresky
Seventeen 6'9" sashes in a multicolored patchwork style are laid out on a rug.

Furniture restoration update, before and after:
A wooden table in poor condition, with water staining on the tabletop. The same table, repaired. Water stains are gone. The table is shiny and a darker color.

I made 10 fully-lined wrap skirts with patchwork waistbands for the show I'm directing. Next up, 17 6'9" patchwork sashes, 2 patchwork ogre tails, and 1 kerchief. I may never leave my sewing room (except for rehearsal).
#theatresky #sewing #quilting
10 wrap skirts in different colors laid on top of each other on the floor. The waistbands have fabric from all 10 skirts sewn in a patchwork pattern.

Post a meme you made:
An orange and white cat looking at the camera. The cat looks somewhat annoyed. Text at the bottom reads, "My face when a man tells me to smile."
