I also showed mom & gramma. They also were quite impressed, though gramma is scared you're going to catch your head on fire and expressed great displeasure in your choice of music.
Anyway, you're making a lot of progress, keep it up! I'm a proud fishie!

Don't worry too much about safety, precautions have been taken. I don't think you can see it, but I am wearing a 100% wool beanie to protect my hair, and my clothing is 100% cotton, so if I light myself on fire the clothing will burn rather than melt. And in such an unfortunate event there is a fire safety watching to come smother the flames, because no one wants to see a flaming monkey.
As for the music, not my choice; it's just what came on. I couldn't really hear it out there spinning, so was hilarious to watch the video and hear that gramma got run over by a beer truck.
