Long day

Today is always a really hard day.  We ended with partnering though, which is usually tons of fun.  But the day didn't end until 6:30p and it always feels like there is so much work still to do on the performance pieces and not enough time.  We had some great young guys for partnering, including some who were very experienced at it and could help us improve.  We are doing the Act 2 pas de deux from Cinderella this year, so yet more beautiful music.  We went back to the Thai restaurant for dinner (the food is really good but not heavy, the service is wonderful and they have delicious desserts).  After dinner, we came back to the hotel and reviewed the timing for the variation but everyone is pretty trashed.  I've always experienced waking up on Thursday feeling great, so I'm hoping that holds this year as well.
