Ok, my secret is out. I might as well admit it. Probably best for us all if I do.

So here it is.

Hi, my name is Lori and I have Obsessive Compulsive Tribal Style Belly Dance Syndrome.

The truth of my situation was revealed to me by a long time acquaintance in Washington State. Bless her heart she appeared to me in an email and rather bluntly pointed out that I am obsessed after reading a rather lengthy email from me comparing and contrasting American cabaret, Tribal as I know it, ... read more

Man, I'm sick of snow. All it ever does is snow. And cold. I'm sick of cold. It's official that I'm sick of winter and the cold and the snow. Last weekend, I was overjoyed to see no fewer than one dozen robins in my backyard. This weekend they are undoubtedly off somewhere freezing whatever passes for their butts off. They say that there never was a winter that wasn't followed by a spring but this may be the year folks.

At least I have dancing and costuming to keep me busy. And my ... read more

So here I am in my new (ancient) home sitting at my own computer, uncomfortable though that may be, and I've a few thoughts to share on this Thanksgiving day.

1. I have a lot to be thankful for and while I'm not going to go into detail or bore you with a list, suffice it to say I'm thankful.

2. I've learned a lot in the last few months about myself and the world. The most important thing I've learned is that if you have a map, you're going to be ok. Oh, and also that Anubis is not a j... read more

I love you!

This is one super cool nerd. She's like friggin Batman. Chemist by dance, bellydancer by night. She can whip up a secret weapon overnight and come into class with an amazing new choli or skirt. Can stare you down with lazer beams with her eyes and dances with incredible energy and attitude. She's daring and bold, she's smart and actually quite nice. You'd like her. ALOT! She's a woman to be admired and aspire to be like.

Lori,
A woman that constantly amazes me!! She has picked up the true meaning of Tribal belly dance so quickly! She has integreted herself into our tribe so deeply that if she left I would forever mourn her presence. She is an embodiement of the true Tribal Sister.
