That's all so awesome. Have you always been doing it for work or did you get into it later? Sorry for all the questions and no need to answer obviously, just fascinated by everyone's story in the industry. I'm too much of a chicken for much of your skills, but I love admiring it from the other side of the field. Hopefully one day our paths will cross in the performance world!

That one never caught my interest. It makes me so nervous. I've gotten into stilts and jumping stilts over the past couple years. I'd love to get back into juggling and unicycling but that will have to wait for a bit. I also really wanna try German wheel and aerial hoop!
Also editing to add: what made you wanna do fire and what's your favorite way to use fire? I have a friend who just got a sword, another who favors fans, and most men I know use staff or poi. I personally have never spun or played with fire, but it fascinates me. Many of my friends will eat but not breathe it.
I'm an entertainer as well and thought about fire breathing. I spoke with a couple friends who do it and them all casually talking about collapsing a lung a few times turned me off that idea.
I've had great success in saying I'm cancelling/leaving because I'm moving away. I picked a random area I knew wasn't close to any of their chains and said I loved everything but unfortunately needed to move on. I've had 3 different chains immediately end the contract for me over the phone or in person doing this with no hassle.
The time I tried to quit one to swap to another gym, I had to make 3 calls, email multi-paragraph statements of why I was leaving and wait multiple months before they finally stopped charging me.
Macarons are one I picked up a few years back. I'd be damned if I'm paying almost $3 for a cookie after my niece asked for some at the store. I went home, compared recipes and had a few dozen in front of her that night. They're time consuming, but much of the time is waiting for them to set, which is perfect for my ADHD ass cause I just forget about them for 30 mins to a couple hours. It's a skill that has definitely paid off, and I love giving them to everyone who has never tried one because of the price.
Everyone at my work uses Snapchat regularly. I was pretty surprised to hear them all mentioning it as I hadn't really heard of it in years. They're between the ages of 22-40s if that changes anything.
Followed!
