Juggling Today in Alameda Park

[Matthew Thornley]

I'll be there. I hope you will be there too.

-Matthew

[Nikkaëlle Burlett]

I haven't been juggling in quite some time, but I'm considering coming again… what time are y'all meeting? (I have plans this evening starting around 5:30 but could come for a bit before)

Also, I don't think I remembered to Cc SBJA on a personal update email I sent out on Jan 1 that may be relevant… Here's a belated copy…

~~
I have struggled for some time with an inner self that has lived only in shadow. If all the variety and charm of life are shaped by light and shadow together, it is time for her to step into the light, and time for me to live as one.

I’m changing my name to Nikkaëlle (or Nikka, for short), and my pronouns are she/her.

Pronunciation guide:
NEE-kah-Ell(ə)
or simply: NEE-kah
https://hearmyname.net/say/fr/Nikka%C3%ABlle

I know adjusting to a new name and pronouns can take time. Mistakes will happen. That’s completely fine. A quick correction and moving on is perfect.

If you have questions, please feel free to ask.

As ever,
Nikkaëlle (Nikka)

P.S. If you need to identify me to someone who doesn’t know my new name it’s absolutely fine to use my former name briefly (e.g., “she used to go by Nick”) and move on.

Hope to juggle with y'all again sometime soon (maybe even today?)

Hi Nikka,

We meet around 3:00. It would be great to juggle with you again.
