Eventually I shall have exciting trip pictures up. But not today. And not tomorrow. I renounce promptness and all its works.
But speaking of photos -- tonight is the first ever club meeting and photo shoot of the brand new All-Female Superhero Posse, which my friend Jolie is organizing and of which I comprise one-fifth. Costuming, weaponry, combat, stage names...and most likely a better name for the group. I just hope we don't end up calling it Zorikh's Angels -- and it's doubtful we would as Zorikh would rather have paratroopers than angels any day. Anyway, we think we can eventually get video, photo, and booked performance work through this. Tonight shall be mostly meeting and brainstorming characters and looks, but also playing with the camera and jujitsu practice. I am ever so delighted about this.
And yesterday was my first session wrestling appointment. Sort of. It was actually a mini history of session wrestling + basic moves class put together by a guy who's been a long-time client. Still, I got paid for it. Paid, for taking a class. Slightly baffling, but pretty great. What might have been the lowlight of the night but was actually pretty funny was being told, "Your schtick would be the girl next door act. For people who aren't body builders, and aren't martial artists, and aren't models." In retrospect, I could literally have kicked Steve's ass for that, but truth and tactlessness amuse me too much.
