My Top 3 |

I’m one of those people who, when I get sick, I stay in denial until I pass out. I had a show yesterday at the Museum of Natural History, where I danced for their annual Kwanzaa celebration. I woke up that morning feeling like someone lodged a brick in my lung. I’m no stranger to bronchitis but I wanted to dance so I told myself I’d be OK. The show turned out OK–I think we’ve been better (although people loved it) but it took a toll on me. Plus, I feel like I didn’t dance with as much energy as I should have (or that I’m capable of). I still tried to hang out afterward thinking it would go away but lo, I wake up this morning and the feeling is still there. Guess what? I still got up at about 7:15am and trooped my stubborn self down to Victoria’s Secret for day 1 of their semi-annual sale. I thought I’d beat the crowd but I was wrong. It wasn’t as bad as it could have been, but it was still a madhouse. However, I did get two pairs of the coveted Pink sweat pants, a t-shirt and tons of cute panties even though I almost passed out before leaving the store. But it’s all good now, i’m home and in bed. Denial is over. At least I have the week off. Now I must take care of myself.
As far as the show at the Museum of Natural History, here’s a brief snippet. I googled it and found the video so I have no idea who took this. It’s shot from so far back, I’m in different dances, and switch spots so I kind of get lost in the shuffle. If I come across a clearer video I’ll post it. Despite the set backs, you can try to find who you think is me if you like. *shrugs*
BTW, today is day 4 of Kwanzaa. Ujamaa-Collective Economics. That basically means to pool your money together with friends and family for the greater good. Think of it as when you order pizza for movie night. Everyone chips in to pay for the food.
