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: No, tribe is not dead. (in The Biz of Belly Dance) really- which ones? all 3 costuming tribes I was on are pretty much dead- every once in a while someone pops in to try to sell something, but no actual conversations.

Re: student show performance order (in Belly Dance Instructors) We used to have a rule that performers could be in no more than 2 numbers, just so our organizer could manage scheduling - now we let folks perform in as many groups as they want, but if the schedule is too close for their costume change or they h... read more

Re: Is tribe dying? (in The Biz of Belly Dance) I do think some movers & shakers in some of the tribes have moved on, and that hurts tribe as a whole- I've chopped my tribe list bunches due to inactive tribes- but honestly, I can get onto tribe more reliably than facebook, for some reason (mayb... read more

Re: Giving to your dance community... (in Belly Dancing - the Shira.net Tribe) how much I give back depends on the time & energy I have at any given time in my life- but it seems like attending shows & being moral support for local dancers is the bare minimum if I want this community to survive! right now I'm low on energy w... read more

Re: Giving Credit (in The Biz of Belly Dance) other disciplines use, credit and *pay* choreographers... but that's been discussed here before. I don't have a problem with dancers using choreos by others- it is a very different and distinct skill, apart from the skill of dancing itself, but ye... read more
