Snowboarding and Burlesque
I went snowboarding instead of going to The Vancouver International Burlesque Festival. What can I say? I am a ski bum, and marvel at what my jeep looked like this morning! 
How could I possibly deny myself the pleasure of a foot of fluffy white fresh powder? I could not.
So, what does snowboarding have to do with burlesque? Nothing. Except I have been tossing an idea around in my head of doing a burlesque piece that involves snowboarding. I have noticed that there is something about women who snowboard that is strangely appealing to both men and women. Is it the danger? The adventure? It could not be the gear or clothes, because, although women's snowboarding gear has come a long way, it is still a long way away from being ergonomically designed to actually FIT women. I'm guessing it's the danger.
Tonight, in honor of Japan launching its fourth spy satellite today, I am attending a party in Seattle called Spy which includes a performance by Burning Hearts Burlesque.
