about me
The most important thing to know about me is that I hate salads. With a passion. I don't know why. Do I just not like crunchy greens? Is it the mild idea that I'm eating grass, covered in ranch dressing?

I suppose you might also like to know that I'm 23, married, Hellenic Polythiest (with a mystic and recon bent), Former English Major who now works as a special ed aide and who happens to have the desire to become a Librarian and endure the possibility that people will call me Marian. Some people find it interesting that I'm part of a community that hits each other with foam padded sticks, while dressing funny.

Re: Time to rev it up! (in Synergy RaD) I agree, it's nice to have something concrete to work for.

I can't wait for class to start again. Biking and strength training are wonderful, but nothing beats class!

Wee! (blog entry) The student recital last night went so well. I neither fell over or forgot anything. I consider this a huge success. Tobin and Athena classes/troupes and solos were fantastic -- although Athena looks a bit silly in cabaret costuming.

But goodn... read more

Promise to Myself (blog entry) If I get this job, I will add a yoga class. Main Street does the type I want to do.

I interview for State Farm in 2 hours!

Costume=done. (blog entry) So, I finally completing the clothing portion of my bellydance costuming. Last night I hi-tailed it to tobins to make the Simplicity ATS-style choli. It was seriously the first time I've made something where I didn't have to argue with the fabric ... read more

But goodness, was that nerve-racking until we actually got out onto stage, and I just went into performance mode, let my mind go blank, and just danced. It was so freeing, and with the exception that I didn't get full extension on the left side of my taxeems ... read more

But it also meant that yesterday, I made a frantic call over to Synergy Rad to see if they had space in their Tribal 1 class. And today was the first class. My hips hurt a lot, and I'm beginning to understand where my range of motion on the left side of my hips (where my spi... read more

Costume=done.
So, I finally completing the clothing portion of my bellydance costuming. Last night I hi-tailed it to tobins to make the Simplicity ATS-style choli. It was seriously the first time I've made something where I didn't have to argue with the fabric to finish it. With the exception of putting the sleeve on wrong, I made it in about 2 hours, plus the 30 minutes I took to cut it out. Will do this pattern again.

Plus, my sports bra works for support, which I sorely needed.

Now, if only my cam... read more
