It's been quiet on here lately. What is everyone up to? I am attending a workshop with Karim Nagi and Nourhan Shariff this weekend in Charlotte, NC and getting ready to perform at the Carolina Renaissance Faire season coming up October through November.
Work is crazy! But I'm loving it. Keeps the days going fast so I can get to either dance class or sewing costumes quicker.
The weather is starting to get cooler, which I hope stays that way for Faire. I'm ready for Fall!

Sat, September 20, 2008 - 6:54 PMI'm here too. The troupe that I belong to went on a forced hiatus for awhile. Not dancing a whole lot at the moment either. Most of my energy is going into work in my classroom for this program that I'm in. I make stuff for it all the time. I'm anxious to dance again!

Sun, September 21, 2008 - 5:47 PMI'm here. Started a BD co op group, considering going bi weekly. We have a small crappy but free space but really need a wood floor and mirrors. Nobody has any $ which is one reason we are doing this. Hope something manifests soon.

Its not as big as the US versions of 'Wars' , but it should be fun! So I'm running up a pile of sideless surcoats as I type!

Fri, September 26, 2008 - 9:36 PMI'm here though rarely these days. School and life keep getting in my way unless I carry the laptop with me. Not dancing much at the moment but trying to get back into the swing of it.

Re: Oh where or where are all of the BBBDs?
Sat, September 27, 2008 - 5:12 PMI'm busy as hell these days. I'm directing two major projects at work and traveling too much. My troupe has a gig coming up in three weeks and a major one in early November. So we are sharpening our routine. I've got a solo that I'm also working on for the end of the year. And oh yeah, I have laundry to do too!

Re: Oh where or where are all of the BBBDs?
Mon, September 29, 2008 - 8:36 AMThe Karim Nagi and Nourhan Sharif workshop was awesome! I was so fortunate to be the person to drive Nourhan to and from the studio and to the airport. This gave me the opportunity to get to know her some. She is a little bundle of energy and is so much fun. Her Saidi cane dance workshop was fantastic!
The show that weekend went well except for when the sequin trim in my stick got caught in my hair. I recovered well though. I was just worried that the hairpiece I put on was going to go flying off with the stick! Yes, I know....why am I wearing a hairpiece? I pulled my hair up in a ponytail and I wanted to height so I added a fall to my ponytail and then wrapped my hair around it. Lesson learned.....don't put sequins or anything that can catch on a cane or stick!
So I have a few things still to make to get ready for Faire to begin next weekend. So I will be doing that tonight and tomorrow.
Gasoline has been a problem in Charlotte. I had to drive 20 miles into South Carolina last week to get gas! It is crazy around here. There is no gas and when there is, the lines are so long and people are loosing their tempers! The stations have no organization! It's so frustrating! And now starting next weekend, I'll be driving 70 miles round trip to the faire!
