and first off, I’m 5'7, 5'11 in dance shoes, 170 pounds, broad shoulders and big hips and not small in any dimension. For a ballroom dancer, this means a lot of time spent learning the men’s parts. Especially in lifts.
I’ve had years now of guys kinda just going “lol heck naw” when told to lift me. I don’t admit this part much, but it makes me want to sink into the ground and die when every other girl can be lifted, but I’m just too big.
So this guy, smaller than me and really cute, shows up at auditions and I see this girl across the room getting tossed about like the beautiful pixie she is, and apparently I looked a little wistful because this boy asked me if I liked lifts.
“Oh. I… Uh… I’ve never really done the girls part. I’m a little big, haha…” (laugh it off, as usual.)
He looked me dead in the eye and then picked me up like a movie princess, bounced me in the air a few times, and set me down effortlessly while telling me whoever refused to lift me before was just being a lazy wimp.
I seriously doubt this boy will ever really get how much that meant to me. But, holy cow. Some faith in humanity just got restored.
guys lmao I went back to watch some old law and order svu episodes and thereās this one scene where a girl claims her alibi is she went to see the phantom of the opera and to confirm whether or not sheās telling the truth the detective goes, āoh yeah I love phantom of the opera itās so sad when the guy goes to prison for stealing breadā and the girl AGREES and later heās telling his partner āyeah sheās lying thereās no bread in phantomā
the “in this essay, i will” memes are the most wholesome of the current popular memes because as well as being genuinely hilarious, they encourage deep, analytical thinking which often produces profound statements. in this essay, i will
I think my biggest news since my little hiatus was this fox that lives in my garden! She has a bad leg so the RSPCA came to look at her and concluded she either is about to give birth or has recently done so, so they couldnāt take her away to treat her leg so Iāve just been keeping an eye!
Sheās very tame, Iāve been trying not to get her too comfortable with me but sheās VERY friendly!
