Rheumatic Princess: November 2014

http://rheumaticprincess.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html

A cantankerous old lady with rheumatism takes up classical ballet at age thirty. Monday, November 24, 2014. Number of times in my life I have thought to myself "oh boy! I can't wait to do some pilates! About once a year I get tired of having "lower abs, RPrin! Yelled at me ten times a week and start doing pilates. And then I start whining about it almost immediately. I I really hate pilates. This has been discussed many times in the past. In other sort-of health news:. The things I do for ballet. Last ni...

Rheumatic Princess: July 2015

http://rheumaticprincess.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html

A cantankerous old lady with rheumatism takes up classical ballet at age thirty. Tuesday, July 14, 2015. Where have you been, RPrin? I have been either working 11 hours shifts on my days off or dealing with my poor cat (not the same one as last time), who had to have her eyeball removed this week after several weeks of vet visits, ultrasounds, x-rays, and other tests. Tonight I got to take class for the first time in a few weeks. It felt great! Got to get back on the ballet train, girl. Other Stuff I Do.

Rheumatic Princess: I don't even

http://rheumaticprincess.blogspot.com/2015/06/i-dont-even.html

A cantankerous old lady with rheumatism takes up classical ballet at age thirty. Tuesday, June 2, 2015. Almost without question within the next few years my husband and I will have to move and settle in an obnoxious suburb that neither of us is particularly excited about. A family thing, we don't have a lot of say in it. Unless we win the lottery, I guess. I hardly even knew what to say! I am pretty sure that any dancers reading this immediately understand the horror I felt. Are you KIDDING me?

Rheumatic Princess: October 2014

http://rheumaticprincess.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html

A cantankerous old lady with rheumatism takes up classical ballet at age thirty. Wednesday, October 29, 2014. Minor Improvements That Must be Fought For. Sometimes breakthroughs are exceptional. A moment of clarity and suddenly you are doing something you've never dreamed of. But, let's face it, mostly you get tiny imperceptible improvements over the course of three solid months of work and the final product can really only justifiably be called "less bad than it was". Just kind of a wreck. This stuff th...

Rheumatic Princess: December 2014

http://rheumaticprincess.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html

A cantankerous old lady with rheumatism takes up classical ballet at age thirty. Sunday, December 28, 2014. Ze Queen and ze firebird. How is the "no ballet in opera" scene from Amadeus not on Youtube? How am I supposed to make this post even vaguely related to ballet without a visual aid of the most ballet-related thing going on in my life right now? Why are there no happy. Movies with panniers and giant hair? And because I am reading a biography about Marie Antoinette. PS: I am not responsible for the w...

Rheumatic Princess: Princess Furball (or Whatever)

http://rheumaticprincess.blogspot.com/2015/05/princess-furball-or-whatever.html

A cantankerous old lady with rheumatism takes up classical ballet at age thirty. Wednesday, May 13, 2015. Princess Furball (or Whatever). So, anyway. Peau D'ane is a Cinderella story with a princess who goes to three balls, wearing three beautiful gowns: one as silver as the moon, one as golden as the sun, and one as sparkling as the stars. There you go, that is pretty much all you need to know. I was given a plain little white romantic tutu. And an ugly (and boxy) thrift-store Indian (? And Ive stopped ...

Rheumatic Princess: I Call This One "Somebody Else can Press the Damn Skirt"

http://rheumaticprincess.blogspot.com/2015/05/i-call-this-one-somebody-else-can-press.html

A cantankerous old lady with rheumatism takes up classical ballet at age thirty. Thursday, May 21, 2015. I Call This One "Somebody Else can Press the Damn Skirt". More Peau D'ane. Maybe? For her moon or stars dress? Who knows. This is another "here, take this tutu and this thrift store salwar kameez. And make it a Cinderella dress". I refrained from making another lace-up Swiss waist. But only because I don't want another teenager to hate me. ONE IS ENOUGH. Labels: as bright as the stars. Other Stuff I Do.

Rheumatic Princess: Hardly Workin'

http://rheumaticprincess.blogspot.com/2015/08/hardly-workin.html

A cantankerous old lady with rheumatism takes up classical ballet at age thirty. Wednesday, August 5, 2015. I just worked eleven days in a row, mostly 11 hour per day. Because apparently it was someone's bright idea to build an entire show out of flimsy silken nothingness and no one planned on. you know. hiring people to put it together. My joints no longer function, but that's okay; my brain doesn't either. An incredible amount of the past two weeks of my life is in this picture:. So ready for vacation.
