😆 Who knew a dead letter could have its own sob story? Welcome to the thrilling saga of "yogh," a character so obscure it could make a spelling bee champ break a sweat. 📚 But let's be real, English spelling is already a circus without needing to revive alphabet dinosaurs. 🦖

Practicing #handstands while listening to #fedivison today. Some of these tracks sound terrific regardless of whether or not I'm upside down!

2007, Raoul Schoregges Chinesischer Nationalcircus, mit dem Programm „Marco Polo“. Begleitet wurden die Artist*innen unter anderem von einem Erhu-Spieler. Die Erhu ist eine Röhrenspießlaute mit zwei Saiten, die mit dem Bogen gestrichen wird.

This weekend we'll be doing a holiday themed show for a young audience. Many of the props start out as presents that get unwrapped on stage.

We couldn't help ourselves, and managed to sneak a little #tokipona silliness into the name tags for the #clowns

Field trip today!

Some of my performing partners and I are visiting an elephant sanctuary. As most of these beautiful old beasts are retired circus performers, I suspect we'll have lots to talk about.

Found a treasure trove of pictures from our circus show at Texas Furry Fiesta earlier this year. Shots of us in action start on page 6 of the album.

I especially like this one:

That's @isaacyoung center stage, @Avalon in the background and me on the right...along with four amazing audience volunteers.

Still unpacking from the show, figuratively and literally.

Current inventory:

Six costume changes to clean, more sore muscles than I can count to heal...

And a standing ovation to savor. :)

Not bad for an idiot.

Preparing to teach a ridiculously large number of fursuiters how to move like living, breathing creatures this afternoon.

I can hear the ghost voices of my mentors thinking this is awesome.

It would appear that I am slightly more famous than I was this morning:

My troupe wrote half of our new show last night, and we're off to the studio to explore the rest today.

I can't help but feel equal parts terrified, productive, and excited.

Had a lovely day performing as an idiot at a New Year's Day event in Dallas.

Selfies with a thousand or so smiling fans is a fun way to start 2018.

I'm pretty sure the local news affiliate caught
@Avalon, @naugeleh and I doing something spectacularly stupid. Will post links as I find them.

So many small stories of playing silly games with children and not-too-grown-up adults.

My heart is full and my face is sore from making silly faces.

Spent a chunk of my circus gym time dancing and exploring weight-sharing with a stilt walker.

Was interesting to feel the intersections of where those skills collided.

Also, note to self, never use the word 'collided' in that sentence again.

There's cool, and then there's "someone made a figurine out of one of your stiltwalking characters" cool.

Today, thanks to Ammi Howard over at the Itty Bitty Bestiary, I'm officially both kinds of cool!
