I got the SM!!!

I'm so effing excited! I got a crappy kicking up and not cool shoulder mount last year before my pole sabbatical, and I haven't even been able to do that since I returned to pole in January. But tonight I was asking Azriel and Stellar for tips because I've been hitting my collarbone when attempting it... Well, I logged out of chat and I tried it and GOT IT! And that's the hold- I was so excited I didn't get the chance to try it to get on the pole! And I was able to do a somewhat controlled shoulder dismount, too - did it close to the floor so I wouldn't hurt my back if I lost it. YAY!!
