It’s now barely four days until the recital. I feel like I know the steps well enough, but I don’t feel like I’m really dancing it. There is a fluidity when you watch other dancers. I don’t have the transitions between steps down to where they look...
Microsoft has released a version of the Firefox browser. Yup, you heard me correctly. I read it, reread it, and still keep checking to see whether it’s April 1st. There is something innately wrong about Microsoft releasing a version of Firefox and calling it Microsoft Firefox 2007...
For the past week or more I’ve been faced with a sewing project. Sewing really isn’t my cup of tea. I’m more apt to do cross stitch or sculpture than I am sewing. With a pattern, I am reasonable. Nothing fancy, no-frills, and I definitely loose patience...
Roof is leaking. Again. (sigh) Time to call the guys who patched it last time… Related Images:
Here are some photos of the kids taken with the new camera. It seems to do pretty well with action shots. These pictures were taken at dusk, so please forgive some of the grainyness and blur. It is amazing to see Isis like this, after just two...

Today was a busy day. I went to the barn early to work Rajiyyah and then bathe both horses. Rajiyyah was awesome. I lunged her first with the saddle and bride. The horses in the adjacent paddock took off a few times because of a dog barking...
Okay, I’m pissed. On October 20, I ordered five DVDs on belly dance from Amazon.com. All of the titles said they were in stock at the time of ordering. None of them listed “this items takes 2-3 days to ship.” Nothing like that. Everything said in stock...
