parasitegirl | Leg cramps (Reply)

I think I overdid it on the dance practice, the zumba, and all without upping my water and foods. Wrong time to be like that. I have four restaurants gigs on top of my regular workload this week, let’s see if I pace myself correctly. (The line up is Monday:Ancrya, Weds: Bosphorus Hasan, Thurs: Ala Turca and back to Ancyra for Saturday).

I’m wearing my Tim Burton-esque minimal costume tonight. Tuesday I’ll figure out my sets for Weds and Thursday and use the same costume for both. For all train journeys I’ve packed my Eman skirt to do mobile beading on (the beads, not the mesh)

Not enough water is the only reason I can see for the amazingly painful leg cramps that pulled me from sleep last night and almost made me cry. My right calve still hurts from cramps and spastic twitching. I don’t remember being woken from sleep with leg cramps like this since I was in art school and hitting the No-doze a little too hard.

In zill news, I’ve ordered a pair of Zildan FX dancer’s zills. I tried Mika’s new pair when we did lunch and really fell in love with their tone. They are heavy, but I figure I’ll use them for extending drilling first before I transition them into performance. I figure once I am used to them, I’ll be prepared for any weight of zills.
