red bull gives you wings...and go-go dancers!

i had a pretty long and eventful day today. i worked from 9-4 and then i headed down to the detroit science center to do makeup w/ my coworker, carolyn, for the red bull air race kickoff party. it was pretty cool to go through doors at the science center that are usually off limits to the general public. we did the makeup in this room w/ nature murals painted on all four walls. there were small panels that opened up like doors in various spots on the wall. at first i saw one and thought it hid an electrical outlet, except when i opened it i jumped back because hiding in the space was a little ball of fur. i realized there were doors all over the wall and each one housed something different: an acorn, a painting of bats, etc. it was strange. there were also fish tanks w/ no fish in them and a fake tree in the corner of the room. i felt funny being in such a kid-friendly room since we were doing makeup on some dancers who were completely unaware of the meaning of modesty. all i saw were boobs and asses.
