icepixie: ([Skating] Roca Sur ghost in pink)
Ahahahaha, somehow I have gotten to THE HEAD OF THE LINE for the library's copy of the Hyperbole and a Half book. You know, when it actually comes out in two months. Nevertheless, I am 1 of 1 holds. Eeeeeexcellent.

I just discovered that there actually were TV broadcasts of the Brian Boitano/Katerina Witt tours of 1990-92, and someone online has them for trade! Soon they will be in my hot little hands. I've been wanting them not only because this looks kind of fascinating (it's part of their Carmen on Ice show that was made into an HBO movie, because the 90s were bizarre), but because it was Roca/Sur's first big professional break as a team, before they had their amateur competitive career, even. (...I know. Figure skating rules in the 90s were weird.)

I was thiiiiiiiis close to 60,000 words on the not!drawerfic, but then I deleted a scene that wasn't working. Sigh. Aiming to get over that hump this weekend. I still want to have Part 2 completed by the time I leave for [profile] pezprez's wedding in two weeks.

Time to finish this up and get to class...

Beta class!

This session, I get the sub I had a while ago who's very good at explaining things in words and pointing out where each body part should be and what it should be doing during any given move. She also has a nice stockpile of exercises that aren't steps per se, but they're nice easily practiced things that prepare you for real steps or make your real steps work better. This is all exactly what I like and need, so this session should be awesome!

Long, probably not interesting to most of you )
