Its Kind of Like Monday

…but not. Its a short week, so I’m already behind. That’s cool, the weekend was totally worth it. We went to see my belly dance teacher’s troupe dance on Saturday and the kids were fairly impressed, which was cool. I was very impressed, of course. I’m still on a March high. I can’t explain it, but its there. But, its back to reality time and there is homework to do, papers to write, laundry to finish and appointments to keep.

Venus Retrograde

So, I’m all a-twitter about trying out some belly dancing. No, that’s a lie, I’m obsessed. The costumes, the make up, the hair, the henna. Drool.
