Yay for alternative fashion, where short, 31 year old people like me can actually be of use… well, I was wearing the patent leather version of these, so I think that makes me 5′8.5″ which is fun for an evening.  OK, enough about shoes…

Everybody together now:

Makeup - but after the show and in questionable air conditioning - normally I am not so very shiny.

On Stage, mid turn

Backstage, just before the “oh $#!#, is this shrug going to fit?!?!” moment. Thank goodness it was stretchy…

In other news, I got my CPR training/certification yesterday so I’m one step closer to sitting for the big test! :)

As soon as the British houseguests continue on their journey, I will be picking test date for the ACE certification and paying the fee.   I’m considering taking the online version of the test review as well - just to make sure I didn’t miss anything in that big freaking book.

Ordered the "Protein cookies" book from bb.com and tried the oatmeal chocolate chip ones - they are even "boyfriend approved" (he’s very picky about food and has eaten 3-4 of them voluntarily).  I modified the recipe to use Smart Balance instead of butter, and less of it by adding more applesauce.  Also, the only thing we had resembling chocolate chips in the house were 3 squares of baking chocolate, so I chopped those up into vaguely chocolate chip size chunks and tossed them in - it made for a nice bitter chocolate taste, which is something I like better than overly sweet chocolate.  I caught him spreading low fat cream cheese on one of the cookies this morning though….
