Episode 84 Long Legs and Tall Tales by Kristi Lynn Davis

First of all, dancer and author Kristi Lynn Davis is a DELIGHT and this book made me so happy. We are silly show people and it makes sense to us to buy groceries at 2am and have prop accident scars that we are proud of. She takes the reader with her from a small dance studio in Michigan to New York then all over the world and back obeying her call to that show biz life. We cram in choreography on an Alaskan cruise ship and are lavished with gifts on tour with the Playboy Girls of Rock and Roll and then follow her running downstairs in heels and a tiny costume to attend another Rockette's birthday party in a Vegas dressing room. ALSO! I have a WHOLE NEW RESPECT for precision dance at that level. WOW! Impressive. My knees are hurting from reading about the number of high-heeled kicks that life requires. We didn't talk about weed very much in this episode mainly because we all know there is no weed in show biz. Hee hee. Cheers to Beaver Island where we get to hang out in the woods and party and never worrying about what 'normal' means.
