I Dreamed I was Jeannie


I did it! Yes, folks, I did it. I went to a belly dancing class, and surprise, surprise, suprise! I LOVED IT. It was fully of stretching, dancing, and concentration. It was tough.... but I had a blast! I cannot wait to go back and try it again.
"How did you get roped into this?" you ask. Well, I was asked by a friend if I would be interested in going to an "open" class. I was tickled by the fact that she was going, so I said "sure, why not?" I need to exercise, I like to dance but don't know how, and I thought this sounded fun. Who can resist the chance to do something different but good for you??? I will never look like I Dream of Jeannie, but if I keep this up I might look like ...... me. Only with a cute outfit! (Yes, I can see you laughing! Now knock it off! Don't spoil it for me.)
Anyway, after this is over, I think I am signing up for Swing Dancing. I love swing music and I have always wanted to be able to swing dance. So, I this will be a great opportunity to exercise and learn something neat at the same time. I am soooo jazzed about this.
Life is all about trying new things. Experimenting. Learning to try new foods, clothes, dances, music, books, movies, operas, bowling, skiing, bunjee-jumping, desserts, gardening, photography, seafood, flying, scuba diving, guitar playing, drums, bookclubs, and the list goes on and on. There are so many things to do and I just don't see where I am going to have enough to time to do it all. When my life is over, I want to know that I experienced lots of different things, learned new things, and enjoyed the ride. If you are interested.... then come with me! Let's go try something new.
