I am not a big fan of Daylight Saving Time. It really throws me off. Here we have a 10pm show which means I will get home earlier, but then I still end up losing an hour. And I have to be on set in 2 hours. I am going to have to break down this morning and put gas in the car. I have $132 free on one credit card which I am going to eat up right now with gas. I don't have much of a choice. It's too cold and there's a possibility of rain which means if I am on the motorcycle I am screwed. I have to go across a bridge this morning to get to the location and the last place I want to be is on the bike on a bridge in the rain.

Yesterday I went onsite at 8, shot until 12, was home at 1, left for the second show at 7, was home at 1. In total in 10 hours yesterday I had more human contact than I had in the five days prior. Scary.

Shooting was good in the morning. We did an outside shoot which had challenges. It was in a public area so between dogs running, sun issues, lugging equipment across a field, sound challenges, etc, it was definitely a much more engaging shoot than just sitting in a room with controlled conditions. We managed to get the scene done, but it took almost an hour longer than planned. We also had to deal with building security because they were afraid we were shooting their building. Legally they didn't have a leg to stand on because we were shooting from public area, but it was still a hassle.

Came home after shooting and took a nap. Not very relaxing for some reason, but I managed to sleep for a couple hours almost. Got up, had the last of my fruit, and then putzed around until showtime. Show was happily uneventful. It's in the most conservative theater we use. This place even does assigned seating. It was almost a sold out show and for the most part things went smooth. No major issues. I rode in the prop van which is how I avoided having to use my own gas, but it also meant I was reliant on everything being loaded and the driver being ready to go. We could have been home a half hour sooner, but it was what it was.

Off to shower. Tomorrow I am home. Still haven't shaved...
