about me
I'm a dilettante who hasn't decided what she wants to be when she grows up... I've variously been an actor, director, playwright and stand-up comic... and now I'm into bellydance.

Five days gone and I'm finally recovered from Raquy's Fabulous Winter Retreat.

I mean, she doesn't beat us or anything (at least not in any way that we don't want), but wow what a workout!

We had a very small group this time... maybe about fifteen people. But all of us were intermediate to advanced, so she gave us Jehan to learn -- one of the finger-bending solos on her recent CD, Naked.

The other students didn't seem to have a hard time with it, but I struggled...

Since I don't really want to talk about this anymore (and since I had just written a more detailed entry which got eaten by Tribe), I'm pasting in a post I put on a community bulletin board for those who are curious. Apologies for the unfamiliar references.

Last Saturday, at about 7:15pm, while I was walking along the Navy
Street bike path towards the B61 bus stop, a group of kids on the
