Just got this in an email from a troupe mate, a quote from an audience member after our performance Saturday night:

You know all the different fruits of the world?
And how you feel when you take a bite out of
each of them?
-That- is how brilliant you all looked up there!!

I do believe that's our first fruit-related compliment. Oh, if interested there are a few pics and a little movie clip up on Alyne's site (www.bellydance.com), just click the "Jewel of Opar" link. I will warn you that on my computer at least the sound on the movie clip was all kinds of screwy. You're better off just muting it and watching. I thought Aelf's blue costume was incredibly eye catching, I'm really glad she ended up in the center.

And damn you, Aelf, for showing me this:

*Whimper*

Burbank's not that far, right? I so don't need the expense right now, but hot damn that's tempting. I mean that's everybody I'd really want to see right there. *sigh* I'll consider it.

Oh and if my sisters back home read this, James Darren (a.k.a. Vic Fontaine from DS9) will be playing the Fair this year on Monday, August 29, 2005. I can't imagine you'd miss this performance, even if it does mean braving the madness that is the State Fair.

Um, aside from that I've got an amazingly cute Hobbit pic on my LOTR calendar today and a mountain of work and emails to dig myself out from under.
