uhhh, how about quitting my job and lifelong destiny to be a messiah and joining the circus and living on rice and beans and spirulina?for no money, lots of sweat, and blood, and tears, and engine grease? and no longer having fertile testicles, having pummelled them too many times as a beginner? and having burns on every part of my body (yay burns) and having to cut my pit hairs short? how about having every bit of clothing i own or ever buy be a costume of a cotton blend, because you never know when you'll be at a party and someone will beg you to do fire, and all your costumes are stained with black streaks? and not to mention the lung coughing thing after the 5 year point? and let's not forget the ccccountless hours spent sitting in front of this gosh dang machine, talking to people who are probably all fake fbi undercover trying to mess with my head so i'll divulge the secrets of the universe (surely ya'll can't be real, too good to be true)(or maybe it's the drug abuse in high school talking)! oo00o, how about dreaming about chain moves and even making love while firedancing in the astral world? basically devoting my life to them? is that enough? cause i can think of more...

I love poi so much:

I am willing to forfit having a ceiling lamp in my lounge(poi-ed to death)and have installed a uv tube.

I went on line primarily so I can join in properly on a poi website and find out about poi meets.

I am unwilling to get a *real job* then I can spin when I want to.

I went to free parties just so I could fire dance all night.

I like autumn/winter because it gets dark earlier therefore I can light up sooner.

I buy kero in 20 litre tubs.

Are we nearly there yet?
