Wandering Aimlessly

Tonight was Champions on Ice. Woohoo!! It was so fun. Even though I was stuck up in C... I knew I would be, since I was on the floor for the MTV Campus Invasion Tour. They do a rotation. Anyway.

Sarah Hughes and Sasha Cohen (I have NO idea if those names are spelled right) were not there. People were PISSED. Especially about Sarah, because they really, really promoted her in the ads. Ah well. Timothy Goebbels (again on the spelling) WAS there, and he's my favorite. Michelle Kwan, Elvis Stoiko (I need to look up these people to spell their names right) and a bunch of people I won't ATTEMPT to spell were also there.

They amaze me. I have to say. They do all these flips and turns and throws and yeesh! I have a hard enough time going forwards on skates. The music they did their routines to was a lot of fun as well. There was the obligatory pink-sequinned "Pop" (and no, it wasn't JC this time), so that was fun. The guy started out on his head (on his head on the ice, yeah) and did a flip. I forget his name. Later he came out and did Cartman's "Sailing" from South Park, then ripped that costume off and was dressed like an old lady for "Dude Looks Like a Lady." That was SO fun. <.giggle>

There was this one pair's routine, but it was two men. A bigger, muscle-ier guy and a smaller guy, and they were absolutely hysterical. They were in ballet outfits and tutus and BOY were they strong. They had to be gymnasts... the big guy was holding the little guy up in all sorts of weird ways. At one point the little guy balanced in a one-handed handstand on the bigger guy's head. Yow! They were walking all over each other with their skates, tumbling, flipping, flying... sure was a show.

And then my Timothy. He makes me smile. I kept telling everyone who complained about Sarah Hughes that Timothy was here, and that was even better, and my supervisor came up to me and said "I don't want to burst any bubbles, but I don't think he goes for women." Nope, me neither, but dude, he's so gosh darned adorable. He's so my favorite. <.g>

What else? I had really nice people in my section. The majority were over 60, so they were all super-sweet (aside from people complaining about the lack of Sarah... what was I gonna do about that? =/) At the end, they did a whole Tribute to America thing, which was kind of funny because almost half the skaters weren't from the US. Lol. Oh well. It was nice and moving and there were fireworks and flags.

It was our last "real" event before graduation (Creed was cancelled for Wednesday... one of them was in a car accident! He's okay though), so the Big Boss announced all the seniors who were graduating. Oops. Afterwards, Aarti and I had to go tell them that we are not actually graduating and will both be around for one more semester, if that's okay. They were very excited to have us stay. <.g> It's nice to know that you're appreciated and liked and you do a good job, and people want you to come back.

So that was that. And I am waiting (im)patiently for reports of the Florida concerts... *ahem* =) I hear there were tears shed, which is so sweet and makes me love them all the more. I'd be a big ball o' sap, too. Heehee.
