It's been a long time since I've danced for an audience, but I got to again tonight!  I was in a piece using "Welcome to the Black Parade" by My Chemical Romance.  We got to wear ripped nylons and black skirts and tops with really dark makeup and crazy hair.  Fun fun fun.  It just feels good to be dancing again.  It was all dance majors (except one ( Read more... )

I think all my meds make me kinda overly emotional, but whatever, it'll be over in a week ( Read more... )

Frickin' weird dreams lately. No desire to sleep really, except that I'm actually tired. Er, it is 4:00 a.m. Wow.
