today is tuesday the 12th of september. but i am still high off of my flying trapeze class on sunday the 10th of september. i did a pretty cool trick and...most importantly...i turned around in mid-air after the trick and caught the other trapeze flying toward me! yay me! it's actually suprisingly difficult to turn in mid-air in one place. every muscle has to be contracted. i don't think i would have done as well if i hadn't had a three hour ballet class the day before where every muscle n my body was contracted for the entire three-hour period. i should thank the gods of muscle memory for the mid-air piroutte. even though i would rather take the credit myself...
oh man oh man, trapeze is such a good time. i sure wish it didn't cost as much as it does though. and since (ahem) nobody bought me trapeze lessons for my birthday like i soooo subtly suggested, i must continue scrimping and saving for my one precious class a month. maybe twice a month. maybe every day. oh how i wish. my hands would be really torn-up if i went every day though. and i would probably be a professional and work with a travelling circus and go all sorts of exotic places and that would just be toooo awful. i hate to travel, as i'm sure you all know.
i think i'm finally getting the hang of pottery as well. i made a bowl last night that worked out pretty great. it is, unfortunately, a size and shape entirely unconducive to eating out of but....too bad. i'll have to think of another use for it. maybe it will be the perfect bowl to put buttons in. or peanuts. or...or...something. i'm open to suggestions. whattya got?
i guess i don't really have anything else wonderful and informative to say...not like this blog is ever wonderful or informative. so have a nice day everyone. and then write about it on yer own blog gosh darnit!
