Proof of life!
I've been busy lately with family stuff and our year end show @ the Grand. My 2 classes and my solo coaching student did a FANTASTIC job dancing my Tamra Henna, Aziza, and Drum Solo. And now, a summer off!

CANADA - GO VOTE!!!!

We get 3 hours off work *BY LAW* to go and vote, so you can help guide the country away from the path that the US has gone down.

Vote strategically, vote wisely, think about what's at stake. We have lots of parties, but it's between 2.

Go vote. It really fucking matters.

I am truly terrified for Hamdan. If you don’t know who Hamdan Ballal is, he is the director of No Other Land and he and Yuval both won the Oscar for Best Documentary this year

Huh, so it turns out there *is* such a thing as a costume too fabulous for certain performances. After 25 damn years, I'm still learning. #ohwell #butilookedgood #doitforthefashion

I'm a creature of habit.

I've been wearing the same 2g Afghan eyelets from Tawapa for almost 20 years. Every day.

Today, I finally lost one.

It just fell out, and I don't know where or when.
I've ordered new ones, but I'm sad. They've been in my ears for over 2 decades. Boooo.

I don't take many selfies, let alone selfies at gigs. But as I watched my daughter's eyes sparkle this evening when she saw me in costume, I realized these days won't last forever. So here's a cheesy selfie between sets, a bit sweaty, and my skirt is wrinkled. Cheeeese.

Gig reality: I'm sitting in a posh hotel room between sets. I brought a rice krispie square to snack on. I take a graceless bite, & there's a knock - the concierge has brought me a platter of Moroccan dishes. My mouth is full, but I squeak out "OMGNOWAY".

I am grace personified. Pure class.

Hey, in case you were thinking about having kids, I just want you to know that I've got a gig coming up that starts after 9pm and I'm basically training myself in advance to stay up that late because I haven't slept like a proper human since I was 4 months pregnant in 2020. Ok, good luck.

I'm having a ton of fun preparing for my students' year end show (yes, it's not until May, but it's still fun). I've got mixed levels doing a drum solo, advanced students doing a golden age piece, and my private student preparing her first solo. It's dance teacher heaven around here!

Sorry for the blackout, pals. We've been fighting off a nasty & tenacious virus here at Chateau McThorne. Slowly starting to work through emails and messages again. Take your vitamins - this one is so rough!!

So very sad to hear about David Lynch. He was singular, an absolute visionary. What a loss.

And yet, I know he's probably thrilled to see what happens next. 💔

US dancers, how are you feeling about the #tiktok ban? I never used it personally, but what alternative are you going to use now, if any?
January 15, 2025 at 6:34 PM
One of the many things I love about the #dance community is our determination to combine creativity, supporting our friends, and eating great food all into one fine evening. Hafla season is coming, #bellydancers... ♥️

Because when it comes to women's health care, we need to think about men's needs. 🙃
If anyone needs me, I’ll be listening to Rage Against the Machine all day today…

Well, this account is 24 hours old, and I've already made 71 pals. Glad to meet you/see you again, all! ♥️

Shall I do up a dancer "Starter Pack" so we can find each other here?
January 10, 2025 at 5:29 PM
Ok, Vancouver dancers - shall we harass our gorgeous Sally to get her on #bluesky? I miss dancing with her!

Eastern Ontario is lucky to have this community! 💜
The world is a dumpster fire so am sharing photos from our last fundraising show. We donated over $2200 to victims of violence. Some of my favourite people! Will share more.

Still getting set up. I'd post my alt account too, but I only ever use it for following news & such, so if we know each other personally, this is the account to connect with.

Why does everything make me feel a thousand years old now? New social media? BAH. *reaches for therapeutic socks*
January 9, 2025 at 4:40 PM
Finally got some photos uploaded. For some reason, my other account has no issues with Android, but this account prefers iOS.
Ok.
Sure.
Anyway, it’s me, so if we’ve ever sweat in a studio together, high fived back stage, or if I’ve ever left glitter on your cheek, let’s follow each other.
