Everything is burning. The hills outside my house are burning, my feet are burning, my ears are burning and the world is crumbling around us as we speak. Not too bad for a day's work.
So the sky is basically orange right now. There is so much smoke in the air! We could also see the flames when we left our house today. Scary stuff. The only good part of the situation is that we will have pretty sunsets for a while. What is the cost that that comes at though? Homes lost, people scared, worried, sick...people in harm's way? It's just too hot and windy out right now: perfect fire conditions. Why can't there be a happy medium between hot and cold? There are always crazy extremes. And it's still winter!! Gah! 93 degrees!! :P
I worked my school's Gala yesterday. So it started with my working on makeup (there were seven ambience statue people that turned out really awesome) and then 5 minutes before the show I was switched onto another job fetching people and actors and dancers and more people from a bunch of rooms to go backstage. It would not have been bad if I were not wearing killer heels. Never wear killer heels when jogging around a hotel all night. Poor blistered feet. They are crying.
So you know the idea that your ears are burning when someone is talking about you? It happened to me today...and right now actually... Yeah, so my ears are really hot and they feel sunburned. I dont think they are, but is someone secretly talking about me that I don't know about? I hope its in a good way. I wish they would stop though...my ears are starting to hurt. Perhaps it is the weather change though. My nerves hurt too. I am falling apart.
Oh and my e-mail HATES me with a burning passion. I tried e-mailing my French correspondent and completely finished my letter which was very long and took two hours to type and translate and retranslate and such...and what does my e-mail do? "Forced logout of existing session. Please try back later." GAHHHHHHHH!!!!!! It was DONE!! It was ready to GO! Life hates me. I just finished writing a whole NEW letter which took another hour and 1/2. And three more drafts. I dont want to speak French for two more days now. Meh.
Sorry to rant to all of you, I just needed to get that out of my system.
On the plus side I went to get fancy comfortable walking shoes for when I get there. And I dont want to wear shoes again for another two days. I think I'll just go to school barefoot. No one would ever notice.

The fire is really scary....too close for comfort....
The only thing I could smell all morning was burning wood...I think the smell now lives in my pores...
By the way, I saw you and your mom yesterday as you were waiting to turn left onto La Palma....I waved, but you didn't see me ;)
