about me
I'm an off-the-wall eclectic with too many interests to really list here though I've mentioned the main ones in no particular order. For many years I tried to "fit in," but now that I'm a bit older / more mature, I've stopped trying to hide the fact that I'm rather odd -- in fact, I like it! After all, how often do you come across a bellydancing paranormal writer/researcher who is a former classical musician who also used to teach figure skating and is into metaphysics and quantum spirituality? (I would say quantum physics, but my math skills don't quite measure up.) At any rate, I have numerous passions and am passionate about all of them.
I've been frightfully slack on posting here...after my job ended I took a week off (figured I wouldn't have much of a chance after I start a new job, at least not for six months or so), then I've been registering with employment agencies, interviewing, etc. So, I've been pretty busy. <---sad ol' excuse
But I have NOT forgotten you guys---any of you. :) It's just harder now that I only have online access at home, which means dialup. :P
Had the weirdest dream about my bellydance teacher...

Well, last week's bellydance class I missed --- my mom had been in the hospital for two days and didn't feel up to watching J for me. Plus J & I had just gotten back from an overnight "vacation"...despite the fact that shortly after I booked it, I was told my job would be ending 5/18/07.
So as of today I have one more week here, the place I've worked for the last five years (longest day job I've held...got sick of the others and left before I went mad). I came across a *perfect* position t...

Well, I made it through! Not a very good day yesterday; I was feeling sorta low/depressed all day for no apparent reason (though it could have something to do with the spiritual crisis I've been going through lately), plus the weather was gloomy but no rain. I always feel better if it at least rains, but when it's just gloomy grey and overcast it sucks.
Anyway, class was good, my thighs were burning, though I made some progress on keeping my pelvis tucked. Previously I was working really h...

Hey, everyone!
Sorry I've been away...things got busy and I haven't had time to get back here in ages. But I wanted to post today, as I have finally done it: I signed up for a bellydance class!
Now maybe this doesn't seem like a big deal, especially to those of you who've been taking classes for so long you probably can't remember *not* doing it. But for me this was a huge step, as my body issues have never allowed me to do such a thing before. It took a lot of thinking and arguing and ...

Well, I've decided it's official --- I have a Magic Hip Scarf.
With it, I can do my Egyptian shimmies.
Without it, I can't.
Last night I got myself up from the prone position (aka reclining, aka batteries down to zilch lately) and *made* myself get moving again...don't know why I've felt so tired lately, no juice in the batteries AT ALL, despite a burning desire to be up bellydancing. Though I think a little paranoia had something to do with it, since my knee was bothering me so much...
