How my life is going...
Brilliant day today.
Work went well, we got a lot of work done, including some access that my co-worker Katherine had been working with IT to sort out for a few days. We've got a team building day tomorrow. That should be interesting.
Then I went to belly dancing class for the first time.
Man, I *really* suck at dancing. But I decided today I don't care. If I like it, and I'm at least enjoying it, I'll just keep at it until either it's not fun anymore or I get better. So, win-win.
And someone said they liked my skirt. Not someone at the class (although they liked it too - i was the ONLY one in the class wearing a skirt, everyone else was in spandex workout gear) but a random (work related) bloke in the pub before hand. And I don't think he was taking the mick either. It really boosted my self image. Especially since I was feeling a bit self-concious in my 'gothy' skirt.
So. For next weeks class I am going to
a) practice my shimmy. It is SO much harder than it looks (or than my brain thinks it should be!)
b) get a hip scarf. cheap way to add fun.
c) wear leggings and possibly a crop top.
