I wish I could distill today into a liquid. I would drink it by the gallon, I would marinate steaks in it, I would take a bath in it, I would open my eyes under its surface, I would consider breathing it into my lungs.

Here the the wonderful things that happened: first, flying more standing hand-to-hand, with the Ant. I'm getting better, we got some good holds; it was his first success with the move and badly needed practice for me. My first with him, obviously. It's an amazingly thrilling thing. I paid for the lesson... hopefully not too emasculating a move. If his male ego was indeed suffering, though, I think he got it all back with the motorcycle ride from there to the park. Vroom! I haven't been on a motorcycle in years, and this one had power to spare. Snuggle and lean into the turns: I can do that. Yeah.

So the next best thing was waiting in the park, because [livejournal.com profile] islenskr drove into town to meet the group and hang out and take pictures of the acro! Squee! I effervesced at her in my typical Sunday acro-spastic way. Then (after some rest and some food), lots of flying on my three favorite bases plus a couple more. I was radiating joy and I could feel it. Scooper and I got the whip move better than ever before and, by some miracle, it was caught on video... we're getting the feel of each other again after our almost-two-week separation. (You should have seen how badly we flew together on Friday -- total disaster). And I taught reverse spider roll to the Ant. Oh, I know the names of the moves don't mean much to most of you. The point is that I had good moments, and really good hugs, with pretty much everyone I care to have good moments with. We got [livejournal.com profile] islenskr up into star a couple of times, too, with lots of spotting to keep her injured knee safe, and that made me giddy.

I didn't even get bruised in all that. Well, maybe I clocked my chin once on the Ant's collarbone, but whatever. So home, eating stew and talking knitting patterns and jobs with [livejournal.com profile] islenskr, and now this post, and soon to sleep.

(Hee. I also listened to the Of Monsters and Men debut album about four times, and about a 10x repeat of 7 by Prince. I can do that sort of thing when [livejournal.com profile] heisenbug is out of the house.)

Purrrrrrrrrrr.
