My feet are killing me from yet another amazing night at Coco Bongo. I will miss Cancun like mad when I return to Albuquerque on Saturday. I think I will try and come back for Spring Break.
Anyway, as mentioned, Legally Blonde: The Musical is my latest obsession. I have always loved the movie, because I can relate quite a bit to Elle Woods. I take part in many 'subculture' activities; namely Vampire: The Requiem LARP and SCA. Though, I find myself having a hard time fitting in, especially in SCA, because I really do tend to come off as a generic 'dumb blonde'. I find this sort of ironic, since I know that many people involved in such things fall into these subcultures, because they felt that they were outcast by 'mundane' culture. Yet, when someone comes along who is a bit different, they cast them out all the same.
Though, there are a few people who "see beyond all the blonde to my mind", and they make it all worth it. I honestly don't see why someone can't be into clubbing, shopping, and fashion and also be into the SCA. I don't see why just because someone is blonde and bubbly, she can't be seen as intelligent, too.
That's what Legally Blonde is all about. I should take a hint from Elle Woods and go marching into Pennsic in adorable pink garb, damn whatever other women might say. But, not about to happen. I really, really, want to go to Pennsic though. Maybe a Fairy Godmother will come along and turn me....into someone "right" for the SCA.
