People of the internet, I get to go to Honeybadger after all! I was peacefully doing acro in the living room yesterday with a visiting Israeli acrobat when my phone rang. It was the Ant (yay! I miss you, Ant!) and he wanted to go ahead and get signed up for Honeybadger with me as his flyer (quadruple yay!!!). I don't know what percolated through his head to make him able to commit, but I don't care. Happy flyer's got a base with enormous hands, and happy flyer slammed the official registration into the system just as fast as it could get to a computer.
We also talked about handstands and new acro moves, and about our culture of physical touch. Apparently the Ant, who is away traveling, has been touch-starved on this trip. He said that for a couple of days he was sad and lonely and didn't know why, until he realized that (without jujitsu, acro or his girlfriend) nobody was touching him. Awwwwwww. I totally understand -- and of course hearing him say it made me seriously want to hug him, and I couldn't. I think he found someone to roll with (that's in the jujitsu sense, not the druggie sense) so hopefully that'll help. I have some of the same concerns for myself as I head off to CA for the week, but there'll be acro on Tuesday and Wednesday and I'll try to see friends on the other days. Nothing as good as sex or real acro snuggles with the Boston crew. But I, too, will make it.
And I will do a great deal of work, and mostly rest my sprained/strained wrist, and enjoy missing out on the ice pellets and rain that are supposed to fall on top of the 2 feet of snow now in Boston. Loved being there for the storm, but happy to miss out on the ice; it's a fine time for a business trip.
