A bit wrecked

[anagramofbrat]

Yesterday was the Bon Appetit Burlesque Nerd Show V, and I was asked to reprise my Sad Minecraft Zombie act from the Tassel Tussle, so stressing over that pretty much ate me over the past couple weeks. Thankfully it went very well and I'm happy with the tweaks I managed to make to both act and costume, and once again people LOVED it. Apparently I manage to do sexy/funny/adorkable very very well and it works. So yay for that. The few amusing drawbacks is that the day after I am physically wrecked - I don't know how or what I did or what but I woke up and EVERYTHING hurt... maybe just a massive release of tension + my usual monthly burlesque drop? - and owing to setting my thoroughly caked on green cream makeup with green glitter hairspray, parts of me remain faintly green after a day, heavy duty makeup remover and a very scrubby shower. Luckily above the neck so I'm still work safe, but still. Also sharpie bleeds through tights so my butt still reads "Steve - call me!! XOXO" Or at least I assume it does, I haven't checked.

So yeah that's done, onwards to the next thing right?

Not too much else going on - looking forward to the premiere of Horses, Tits & Horses, Tits & Horses, Tits & Horses tonight*, have to do something about dealing with my taxes within the next few days (ugh!), clean my house, get my money in order, send in Mystery Application, and worry about Other Things I can't post publicly about and how on earth I'm going to resurrect EPEEN. Also should catch my minecraft blog up, haven't had much chance or brain to post there either.

OH! while doing last minute show stuff Friday night, Husbeast and I binged halfway through Daredevil. WOW. Marvel keeps amping their A game with every new piece of the MCU. I am thoroughly enjoying this latest installment.

Lastly it is lovely and warm today. No real green things going yet but I did see some hungry looking finches hanging out in the as yet bare maple tree outside so I bought birdseed this afternoon and hung up my feeder. It'll take a few days for them to discover it, but once they do the neighborhood cats'll have some food porn to watch before the leaves come in. Spring, y'all.

* sing this to the tune of the Game of Thrones theme.

*sniggering at 'Tits & Horses'* I don't watch the show, but ever since the relevant episodes of South Park, I hear 'Wiener, wiener wiener, floppy wiener...' to that tune.

Heh. Heehee.

Anyway! I'mma be That Guy and exhort you to soak your sore bod in epsom salts (if that's not contraindicated.) The woman I've gotten massages from (oh, and try to get yourself some of that too) recommended it to me yesterday, but in greater quantity than the standard. As in, four cups of salts, instead of just two, in your hot bath. It really does help!

That is such a fucking great act, I can't even tell you. Also I know that feel of exhaustion after a burlesque show. Usually I end up laying down in the shower with my feet up and the spray pointed at them because they hurt so bad.

Yeah this is why I don't bother with stilettos. My legs hurt bad enough with a 2 inch chunky heel! I don't know how hors does it for five hours in six inch stilettos.

I wore a pair of 8" (no joke!) heels one time for a show in California. I have no idea how I survived.
