Twirling onward
It's interesting to be cheerful and to feel like the future is... is... well maybe we don't think too hard about that, but not obviously doomed, anyway.
Of the new connections I mentioned a while ago, two are sticking and going well. One is the new acro base, who might someday need a nickname -- just two dynamic acro classes in, it's really obvious that we work well together. We stuck the first standing hand-to-hand we ever tried, and I'm getting my pitching form back. I expected to be perfectly happy retreading old ground with a new person and cheering when the partnership got tricks I have felt in other partnerships; but to my delight we're working on one trick that is entirely new to me, a run-up to reverse hand-to-hand. When we get that it'll be a real first. :D
The other one is the therapist; I like her. I think this morning was my fifth time seeing her, and she said useful things about my dad. Maybe he had boundary issues? "What was that one-room cabin, after all, but the very embodiment of a no-boundaries environment?" Hmmm. What indeed.
And my friend SPW just got her first press handstand on her FIFTIETH birthday, after trying for twelve years. Fuck yeah, lady.
PSA: this year's totally presentable Croc sandal is the Anna slide... comfy elastic bands look nice and the footbed is still pure Croc.
