?!?


I Don't Hate You, Silly *HUG*

Had a surprise house inspection.

Cue me getting three hours of sleep a night--when I was lucky--and cleaning everything in sight. Twice.

Then having the house fogged for insects.

Then going out to dinner for mom's birthday.

Then finally getting a shred of decent sleep only to find I have a commitment I made months ago and forgot about that means I won't be getting much sleep tonight, either.

*Sigh.*

Anyway. I love you. ^_^

I'll talk to you if I ever get a free moment again. Which may be never...

*Quietly dies of frustration .* >_<

See you 'round? :^)

Alterne


She Slept

On dancing.

Says someone I know: "how do you DO that?"

Wonder no more :^p

It starts very simple: line your feet up with your shoulders, slightly apart, and start with the hips. Left right left right left right, walking while standing still. A figure eight on its side in three dimensions: an invisible sign of infinity. Your knees should be bent: your knees are your friends. They're what drive your hips.

Add the shake and slowly raise your arms. Keep them straight up--its rude to flail. Swing those from side to side at the wrists only, and stay inside your body space. Your head should always be last, from side to side in the same pattern as your hips--you're the snake, you're the cobra. Now follow the music. DO the will of the Charmer.

Now you've got some onlookers. Let them know you know they're there. A nod and a smile is best. DON'T wink unless you plan on having to defuse pick-up lines. Show off a little: bring the shake all the way down and snap it back up in time to the bass. Done correctly, this will drive them insane. Add a few shoulder-shrugs and they're yours.

Perhaps the most important point: if you're getting tired, DO NOT walk off the floor. Plebes and commoners stop their number and walk off the floor. You should dance your way off, and remember to do the same thing getting on.

In short:

Never stop dancing until you're actually off the floor.

And again, the cardinal law: Dominate not thy neighbor's body-space.

See how easy that was?

Have fun ^_^
