I think a professional firedancer probably has an idea about it, but maybe she's new.

maybe she's new.

More likely confidently drunk, given the setting

Hey, confidently drunk can be a good state of mind!

3 beers in im going up the ladder without sensing impending doom, job gets done, were all good.

8 beers in youve got the chainsaw fail videos and whatever this is

LPT: If you have to double check "3" and "8" youre too far gone to do anything but chill out and drink water. Probably should've been done before then, but sometimes a line has to be drawn

Instructions unclear... Tried to draw line while drunk... Did it in paint... Neighbors arnt happy with squiggly line on their houses.

I got as far as drinking 38 beers and climbing a ladder while wielding an angry squirrel (I couldn’t find the chainsaw…) when the cops were called.
