Understood. You be you, then. Enjoy! My WIP includes dancers: my MC's adoptive sister is a first dancer at the colony's top professional troupe, and teaches the MC ballet. There's also other secondary characters, of various levels of importance, who dance. I've got a dance scene in the Workshop that features the MC's sister dancing in fact. So I hope you'll forgive me if I wind up using your experiences to enhance my WIP. They're very human, and very sympathizable with. My own relationship with ballet sprang from this WIP. I wanted the sister to be a performer, and dance was logical for her, given her backstory. I picked ballet, and although I've danced Morris, medieval, and renaissance dance, I knew nothing about ballet. So, I bought tickets to the pro troupe here, saw some shows, then purchased two dinners with some of the dancers at a charity auction to learn their perspective, took a few introductory classes (I'm terrible), and now ... ballet is far and away my favorite form of live entertainment.
I do really enjoy ballet. I prefer tap, though, although my favourite is Irish. I still can't believe we lost the ballet yesterday. It was proper ballet, with tutus and Peter Pan and everything. We were fairies. She taught it, or helped.
When I first arrived in Longford, I stayed at the only hotel in the town (yes, the only one-then) and they had a dinner with a music and dance show. It was good stuff. I enjoyed it. Just to clarify, I am not Irish myself. I'm a Brit.
Thank you. I didn't really mean to spill quite so many beans in that post, but there you go. As I said, it's been a rotten time of it lately and the job is pretty intense. Between that and my other job with the fire service, I've not had a proper relaxing day for 3 months until yesterday, so I just overflowed a bit. Sorry, and thankyou for understanding.
Tax time. I'm not going to owe anything, as all of my income is foreign, but the FWW is that the Form 1116 (where you list your foreign income) is a very scant two pages. The instructions for Form 1116 are twenty-four pages long.
Two whinges, both to do with food. 1-Tesco will not allow me to look at the food I've ordered, presumably because it's being delivered today. I don't want to change it, but I forgot what I did order as it was made last week. Yet I can view products from my old orders. 2-I'm having a craving for caramel. I blame that very tasty caramel flapjack I had on Monday afternoon. I may have to find a recipe so I can make my own. Oh, the hardship! ETA: Also, it's been gale force winds here for about the past 20 hours now. The whistling noise it's making through the doors and windows is annoying to say the least.
After several insurance changes, I’m actually back to a doctor I had about ten years ago. But since it’s been so long since I’ve seen her for anything I count as a new patient again. I tried getting in to see her today about a sinus infection- no luck. Because I’m of new patient status, the soonest I can get in is next Thursday. I’m still waiting for them to call me back about an appointment.
Not my first world whinge but https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/newsbeat-47813521 - "meghan markel stole my instagram handle" Poor baby
That guy kind of made me roll my eyes too. "The Sussexes STOLE my name!" Yes, I'm sure they did it purely to spite you because they are just that awful and you have somehow personally displeased them.
I can't book an eye test online because I have a Medical Card. Apparently, that means I have to book a test in-store, so they can fill out a special form.
"they could have had the courtesy to contact me" - yeah that happens "Hi Pete, this is Prince harry, about your instagram..." Anyone with a half brain would realise that their PR people contacted insta and asked if it was free and insta said yes because the account was inactive
Is this what we're coming too, where were defined by our Twitter handle names. Just get a fucking new one, LOL! Hell, I wouldn't be whining I'd be bragging if they stole mine. But nobody wants mine thankfully, LOL!
He kind of reminds me of the type of person who trademarks common words like cocky. Dude! Your Twitter handle isn't that great of a name , let the Royals have it and pick one that's a little more unique
You'll never forget Cockygate, will you? Neither will I. I don't know why he's complaining so much, they literally changed it from "sussexroyal" to "_sussexroyal_". As you can see, totally unrecognisable.
#FirstWorldProblemRant #WhitePeopleProblemRant #IJustWannaRantForABit Kind of hating the iPhone now. I think I woke up half the frecking neighborhood trying to figure out how to get my timer onto vibrate. >:[ Oh, it can access the collective knowledge of all mankind, but can’t have my timer on vibrate? And it somehow bypasses me putting my phone on mute, or turning the volume down. Or even earplugs. So really, it’s less ‘Hey, let’s make it easier for you and those around you’ and more ‘BITCH NOTICE ME!!!” Maybe I’m just an old man (I’m 30, which is pretty ancient if you ask me) not understanding new tech but seriously. #MyLifeIsRuined
my millionaires short cake was touching the back of the fridge and is now frozen solid - so I have to defrost it before i can eat it ... the trauma cannot be endured
Oh, I hate that. Especially when you need it most. btw... all the distractions that keep you from doing what you're supposed to be doing.
