NM: The High School Cat

As KM put it, I am slowly turning into a cat.  It's probably mostly due to these intense rehearsals, but it may or may not have been inevitable.

So many times, I have started acting like a cat when I had absolutely no reason to do so.

• In school Monday, I started rubbing my head to my neck.
• More than once, I have hissed at someone
• I once considered licking the back of my paw to clean myself
• While listening to someone talk at dance yesterday, I found myself on all fours.

The list could go on a little more.

I successfully creeped out several people in chorus class today when I demonstrated some cat movement (including how cats say hello).  I had a great time.  They didn't.

Honestly, I'm pretty sure that my transformation is not a bad one, just a little socially awkward.  Being four-legged does have it's advantages, even if it lacks versatility in movement.  Also, how awful is it to be one of the most graceful creatures on earth?  The only disadvantage may be the lack of vocabulary, but with Jellicle Cats that's not a problem.

To put it plainly: I'm having such a great time doing this show!  It's become everything I hoped it would be!  Depending on how the shows turn out, it's up there for most fun show I've ever been in.  Please see me if you want to come see it! I would love to actually have people show up this year!
