I've gotten back into my Irish Dance phase, and it makes me nostalgic of the days when I could put on my metal soled dancing boots and bust an irish groove out on a wooden floor. But no. My ankles are fucked beyond belief because the dancing wore out the joints to the point of where dancing was doing more damage to my ankles than anything else.
So I sit here watching Riverdance for the millionth time, still in awe by their feet movements, and how their feet make ONE FUCKING SOUND. They're all perfectly in sync with one another. It's gorgeous. And it angers me all at once. Angry because once upon a time, I could do what they're doing. Now if I dance, anything that's healed in my ankles will go down the toilet... and I have no intention of going through a few years of pain in my ankles again.
Bah...
For those of you who like irish music... Riverdance doth have a few good traditional irish sounding songs...
