First day down

Saturday's over, I'm only faintly pink and my feet don't hurt nearly as awfully as I thought they might. I'm dead tired though and I can tell you all now that there's no way I'm going to be able to make it out dancing next weekend. No. Just...no. Sorry. You all have fun without me.

Had a wonderful time today, although closing gate was a bit tedious. It's not good when you see patrons checking their watches and looking around for a good escape hole because they got caught up front between the royalty and the dancing gypsies.

Things I learned today:
1. I'm not nearly as quick witted as I thought. The other women have some very sharp fast tongues. I'm in awe.
2. My bodice is too damn big and needs adjusting.
3. I'm surprisingly good at bacci ball (or however you spell it).
4. It's easy to keep the Spanish accent as long as I don't ever drop it. I think I sound...not bad.
5. One can impress a whole lane full of people by sticking one's entire hand in one's mouth.

Your whole freaking hand?

Whole freaking hand. Granted, I have small hands, but yeah. Whole hand. Oh, and I can do it with my fist closed (freak of nature jaw flexibility) and my hand open (mostly inoperable gag reflex). Ta da.

Good Lord. I am impressed.

Well, good morning! I'll show off my party trick for you today if you'd like. See you at Chess Match if not before.
