WTF mate?!
I didn't think that I would be posting today. This weekend was stressful. Nutcracker auditions have fallen upon me and difficult casting responsibilities...it's been a weekend to say the least.
And then the cherry on top of it all fell from the sky.
My co-workers and I were headed upstairs to the studios to hash out the final list, check if the children cast could fit the costumes, etc, etc. Most of them were checking cell phone messages as we got out of our cars, so I told them, "I'll head upstairs and print out spreadsheets for everyone - so we'll be set to go."
I get into the elevator, press 3 and I go up about three feet when the whole elevator stops dead.
Frantic button pressing ensued and NOTHING HAPPENED.
On top of all of the high stress work weekend I GOT STUCK IN THE FREAKING ELEVATOR.
Luckily, I have a good sense of humor so I sat on the floor just laughing at the walls and called my boss. She proceeded to laugh harder than I was and called the fire department. Five burly fire men pulled up in their truck and rescued me from the abyss of about three feet off of one of the door openings.
The whole episode lasted about 15 minutes - giving me enough time to finally finish my big craft project! (Hey, might as well be productive right? Pictures to follow tomorrow!)

Ugh. Think of how much worse it could have been though. You could have been stuck in the elevator with someone extremely annoying!! ;)
