On the way I skidded through an intersection, backwards down a road, and into the oncoming lane where a truck almost nailed me. I am SOOOOOOOOO glad I dont have to got to night, whew. Dodged that bullet. *whipes brow* I would have had to leave like now to get there on time but I checked online to make sure.

So, will you be staying safe, then?

It was quite fun, but I suck at DDR. That was the only conclusion possible after I managed to bruise my heels from falling back when I jumped wrong

Did you ever play it Sis?

No. I have enough trouble trying to learn the *cough* choreography for this show. I folk, contra, and belly dance for fun, never started (yet) DDR.

Nauti, that sounds bad! Please do be careful! *is also glad the class got cancelled and is hoping no one else has to go out in the snowstorm*

ditto.

Hey, snow. If they cancel this rehearsal, I'll throw myself on a fondue fork, honest to God.

Are you talking to the snow now? I do hope you're not expecting an answer.

So you decided on doing the show eh? Wish I could see (and hear!) it. I bet you'll do great.

DDR is fun, but I highly doubt its classification as dancing. If you really want to beat the game all you do is jumping from left to right and from front to back on a mat. It doesn't teach you how to move or anything. Let me put it this way: the muscles above your heels will get very strong and you might lose some weight (if that's what you're after) and it's fun, but it's not useful.

Please dont. we'd all miss your banter and rapier wit.

For true.

sisterandcousinandaunt · 02-27-2008, 05:06 PM

Thank you, guys. *heart*

It opens Sunday. Prayers are more than appropriate.

The tech people rock. The soloists (with one exception) are amazing. Even those of us whose main job seems to be holding up the set are not embarrassing ourselves.

But we're suffering a spasm of divatude from some bit players, and we really need the rehearsal time, AFTER, hopefully, they stop changing the blocking.

3 weekends. I can get through it.

**Mari** · 02-27-2008, 05:17 PM

Off course you can! We'll be cheering for you (from a distance, so probably not too audibly, but still

)
Oh well, and just have fun

So... could I get a neck massage from someone? I've spent too much time bent over my papers. >_<

The last sane person · 02-27-2008, 05:34 PM

I feel the pain Mari... I'm doing the same thing.

*Neck massage for Mari*

Erg, I have to revamp my thesis for a paper due in two days.... Joy to the world!

**Mari** · 02-27-2008, 05:47 PM

Ack! Good luck on that Sane! >_<
Thesis's... good thing they don't have necks. I'd be very much tempted to twist it... o_O

sisterandcousinandaunt · 02-27-2008, 05:55 PM

*neck massage for sane*

**Mari** · 02-27-2008, 06:37 PM

And once again I find myself asking the same question that I've been asking myself quite often the past few months: Why in the world am I still online at this time of night?

Off course! And because you give me flowers and food.

Hmmm, that kid sure knows how to play. How old was the youngest chess playing genius again? Wasn't he also 7 or so when he won some big tournament?

**Mari** · 02-28-2008, 03:58 PM

Today is such a wonderful day! *sighs* Many birthdays today too. Ah~ days as near perfect as this one you don't often have. *starts meaninglessly refashioning the flowers in their vases and to half dance half waltz through the Teacup on a cloud*

The last sane person · 02-28-2008, 04:17 PM

*Joins Mari in the Waltz on a cloud...*

*...Tries valiently not to fall through it*

**Mari** · 02-28-2008, 04:21 PM

It's possible, and I'm sure you can.

**Mari** · 02-28-2008, 04:25 PM

Okay! Wanna join? Flowers for everyone! *makes it rain bright flowers with all the dancing on the clouds*

The last sane person · 02-28-2008, 04:28 PM

*Continues to dance upon the cloud, which is a sensation not unlike trying to play hopscotch in a bog*

I don't know how you manage it Mari, I guess you have light elven feet or something...

*sinks up to her knees*

The Sasquatch of Fangorn · 02-28-2008, 04:35 PM

why the flowers? anything special today?
