life in the mad house...

purchased an album online today- love having the brand new release in time to use it for class tonight, but then, listening to the words in a foreign language I don't even recognize, I realize I don't have liner notes. Not only that, but the band has no website, and being a brand new release, no one has commented on it anywhere that I can find (at least not in English!)
So, if anyone knows anything about Ethnique Electrique by Les Faux, help a girl out, huh?
I'm sticking to hard copy from h... read more

Ah, summer travel- I was taking a class at New Haven for just under a week. On the way to class from the hotel, I scoped the potential eateries- quite a variety, it seemed, and a middle eastern patio as well as a falafel restaurant caught my eye. That night, the falafel joint (Mamoun's) looked most inviting, so we stopped by. My mom had come along to help watch my baby girl who is still nursing, and my sister had driven up to see us as well, so the next day I asked them to pick up a falafel f... read more

Warning, I need to vent. Feel free to skip this post, it will probably alienate and disgust half the population at least, but I really need an outlet!
I am so sick of everyone's 'concern' about my wieght! Apparently, I'm just so skinny I couldn't possibly be healthy. Never mind that half my family are absolute bean poles, never mind that I have more energy than I have had in years and I am finally getting back a little muscle tone- I start my curl ups to help fix my baby-stretched abs and my... read more

Heard in my home:
mom, I want a quesedilla.
we don't have quesedilla stuff, what else do you want?
No, I only want a quesedilla.
Okay, well we don't have any cheese- do you want peanut butter instead?
yeah!
Alright, and we don't have any tortillas, should we use bread?
Okay.
Now, do you want salsa or honey?
Honey!
Later that day, daddy asks: So what did you do today? my son: We made quesedillas!

Re: Boundaries/bringing children and family to class (in Belly Dancing - the Shira.net Tribe) as someone who had to go without classes for a while bc there was no childcare available, I think a class like this could work as a community thing, but NOT as a regular BD class- if it's not advertised as a family/community support class for youn... read more
