I am so tired
But am temporarily unable to sleep. My slightly still stuffy nose I can deal with, but the dry phlegmy throat feeling my shitty old AC unit gives me I can't stand. So.. Well here I am lj. At 8:00 am. So I might as well get some updating out of the way. The burlesque show I did a couple of weeks ago was a lot of fun. I was so incredibly nerrrvous! I forget I have a little stage fright it has been so long! It's the same feeling I get about roller coasters except I think the odds of dying are less with performing dance numbers. Isn't that funny? It's not even the boob showing part it's the choreaography that makes me nervous. Ok not that but when something is choreographed and I have a short time to learn it and practice. I've always hated that but I don't recall ever doing anything where it wasn't rushed. I think a good dance number that is fully choreagraphed to every measure of the song should be given at least a month of rehearsal. Buhh what do I know? Regardless I pulled it off and recieved lots of compliments in the end. I looked at the pictures though and all
I could think was, omg never do a show on your period when your body is like a water balloon ever again!!! I looked so much bigger than I really am! Next time... Hopefully ha! Aerial silks classes are going great too. I have found my new passion. I love doing it. It's incredibly rewarding. It just feels so good! When I am in class I think of nothing that is outside those studio doors for the hour I am there. It has become my weekly meditation. To put it simply, I am in love. So I in my new middle agedness have discovered my inner child and she is a vaudevillian circus showgirl. Totally all I wanted and expected her to be. I really can't complain about much anymore. Life is being kind and gentle lately minus the sinus infection I've had for about a week and the food poisoning mitch just got over last night. Poor baby.I felt awful for him. I was so happy to see him enjoy dinner last night. He looked emaciated at the end of it. His stomach was practically concave. All better now and we can move on :). Excited about the gym today. I am bringing my hula hoop and incorperating it into my workout from now on. SO fun! I'm looking forward to going even if I might drag ass at first due to not being able to go for almost a week. Hooping is another skill I am teaching myself. Last night I hooped to my mailbox and back to check the mail. It was a workout in itself but I laughed and smiled the whole time. I must have looked insane to the traffic on the major road next to me! Good times. Well after this good bit of writing ( and turning off that shit bomb ac unit ) my throat is starting to humidify itself again. May actually be able to get back to bed in a minute. So lj'ers, goodnighty night. For the second time :)
