Circus Living

Circus living…
10am - Wake up, cup of tea… Meeting with Jago about hiring a director in January to work with us on Anomalies. Set a budget, and prepared some prep info for the chosen director. Check email, send off ideas for a fire show in December to the girl I’m working with. Confirm booking for compering cabaret on the 20th of November. Check in on how things are going back in the Hangar. Help Jeanine set up her tribe account.

Noon - Swim in the pool. Work out in the Gym. Improve my tan. Spent a half hour playing with rings underwater.

1pm - Rehearsal. Review changes in 3 ball routine choreography, run it (and run it again, and run it again) Exhaust myself trying to sync a 3-beat 441 into a 4-4 rhythm structure.

3pm - Editing the show footage for the promo DVD. Look over In Isolation footage of Drew and Pich

4pm - Unicycling on the roof. Learning to ride backwards.

5pm - cook up some dinner. Pasta… because its easy.

6pm - Our driver arrives to take us to the Bahrain Shopping Center
7pm - Coffee at starbucks. Am exhausted.. nearly fall asleep on the comfy couch. Do some shopping, buy two pairs of new jeans.

8pm - get into costume, warm up on unicycle.

9pm - 50 minutes of unicycling in a packed shopping center. I am officially the greatest unicyclist ever; I didn’t kill anyone.

10pm - Break, meeting with agent, get into 2nd costume and makeup

10:15 - 45 minutes of walkabout juggling (read… dropping balls and making kids giggle and pick them up)

11:00 pm - Juice from the juice bar. Our driver arrives to take us back to the apartment

Midnight - Writing this blog entry. Feeling like i finally have this circus thing figured out.
