weird thoughts . . .

I've had the weirdest thoughts lately; weird meaning strange. I've been out of the real dance scene for a couple years now, and as I was walking down center street the other day I saw a building off to the side and the first thought that came to my mind was how cool it would be to have a studio in that building. I have no idea where that thought came from, but when I actually think about it, I've been wanting to have my own studio for a while--its just finding out how to start that is holding me back. I'm thinking that if I can get other people to join me in this, I might have a chance to get this studio to float. I know that Jakob and a few of his friends would love a spot to practice their stage combat stuff, and if I have a genres of dance in the studio, I think that it would be a bigger selling point.

I guess I have too many ideas running thought my head right now because coupled in with the though about starting a studio, I've wanted to continue with my costuming stuff. I guess being married to someone who is in the performing arts, I'll always have those ideas running around. There is an old reception center (that looks like an old church) that is for sale and if I could get funding for it, I would turn it into a performing arts center. Possibly have classes offered in acting, stage/film combat, and dance. Then I would also have an area to house costumes and a studio area to produce them. Also an area to do the film transfers and film work that I did at BYU and wanted to start my own business doing. I know, I never think in small things, and I need to start small, but I'm sure that I would have people who would be willing to work with me to make this work.

Yep, I've got some strange thoughts running through my head, but I guess a dream has to start somewhere. Don't get me wrong, I'm not going to quit my day job without have some type of financial back-up. A dream may come to reality, but a back-up plan is needed in case the dream tanks. I'm also thinking that now isn't the best time to be starting something like this because of the way the economy is. I mean, the big stores can't get people to come in and spend money; how is a little business going to survive. Eh, I guess its just something that will have to though out for a while.

But today at work was disgusting! Word of the wise: don't ever use a computer without gloves if the previous user was a kid. UGGG! It was gross! I had to update and clean the mobil labs that we have. I was able to do one cart (about 30 computers) today, but along with updating them, I had to disinfect and clean them. I have never seen more dirty, disgusting computers ever! I had to wear gloves and a mask while I was cleaning them because of all the stuff that was coming off them. Did you know that some lab tests show that your computer keyboard has more germs on it than your bathroom? Gross huh?
