OK, so in a few hours I'm driving to Berkshire. And then tomorrow, I
dance in the regional qualifiers for this year's IDTA national dance
competition.
NOT NERVOUS AT ALL. >_<

Dislocated right shoulder is more likely. Nicole is quite a big girl...

Wikipedia has this to say: Among professional dancers, the traditional
phrase is not "break a leg", but "merde".

I have a co-worker who said to a friend "I'll cross my fingers and wish you
luck!" Said friend got all upset, because not being a native english
speaker, the only "cross your fingers" idiom she knew of was crossing your
fingers behind your back.

That explains something from The Producers that I'd wondered about....

A whole weekend of stress, sleep deprivation, dehydration, fasting and
standing around waiting. I don't feel too good today, actually.
We found out last week that we qualified for the IDTA national finals in
Blackpool. (They take the 10 best couples. On Wednesday they put up the
entry sheet, showing that only 5 couples entered in our category.) So
that leaves only the South East Area Medallist event to worry about.
Last year me and Lynn got 6th place. However, having just completed my
Gold Bar 1 exam (with honours, no less), we are now in a higher
category, which has more entrants. The group were two heats, a
semi-final and then the final. We made it to the semi-final, but did not
make it to the final.
(Nicole is actually quite annoyed about that, since the final consisted
of 5 really good dancers, plus one couple who were pretty rubbish. She
feels that should have been us, not them. But hey, it's not all about
skill; a good amount of /luck/ comes into it too. I guess we were just
unlucky.)
Anyway, now it's Monday morning, and our main server has suffered a
mysterious disk anomaly, which means the server is no longer
functioning. No big deal, you know... >_<

Pop quiz: You're 86 miles from home, you're in the shower in a public
changing room, when you suddenly remember that YOU DO NOT HAVE A TOWEL.
What do you do? O_O
