Well, that's new

First rehearsal of Nutcracker tonight. Earlier this summer, the director said she probably wasn't going to change any of our dance. For the last 4 years, it's been fairly consistent. Little changes here and there, but nothing major. This year, EVERYTHING is different. Not one little thing is the same. Except for my "husband." LOL And it's good. We're, like, actually dancing. It feels more like dancing, anyway. I mean, we're doing a rond de jamb en l'air. We've never done anything more complicated than skipping. LOVE IT! But, man. It was hell on my shins. Ugh. I don't know if I'll be able to make it to class tomorrow! And that'll be two weeks off in a row. Blech. Anyway, so, I'm in pain again. Yipee. Oh, and two of the wives were missing. And one of them doesn't really know much about ballet. She's gonna be so lost next week. Guess I'll be doing a lot more practicing in the kitchen. :-D
