Back to the Basics...Story #1

So, I'm in the DANCE studio teaching my grade 10 dance class and I'm wearing these fabulous black pants. In fact, I'm wearing all black. I'm a big fan of all black. So much so, that my students often ask me if I'm a stage manager...

So, I'm standing in front of my class, and I'm a bit irritated that they still don't have the counts down...5, 6, 7, 8...when all of a sudden I hear...RRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIIPPPPPPPPPP!!! I look at myself in the mirror to see that my pants have ripped from the belt line, down the crack of my ass, continuing along the inseam, and all the way down to my ankles for the grand finale...oh yeah, just made my own tear-aways!

Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh. My ass is hanging out. I feel so exposed. Oh my gosh, I AM so exposed. Oh thank goodness I pulled out FULL COVERAGE UNDERWEAR from my drawer this morning! I turn around to hide myself but it's no use...MIRRORS ARE EVERYWHERE!

I wonder to myself...Should I stay 'IN' the classroom with my ass hanging out? OR...Should I excuse myself 'OUT' into the hallway...with my ass hanging out? Because that's a lot of information for my students to process right there...

Peace, Love and T.M.I!!!!

Idiot Noise

I know intellectually that all the urgent, pressing items on my mental list is a bunch of idiot noise. I know that all that matters is spending time with people that I love. If I know this much is true...why do I spend copious amounts of energy on the mental list? I often catch myself basking in the terror and panic of my to-do list...or worse, the absence of fruition in my accomplishments. Panic, flutter, noise, noise, noise...

Let's do something fun! Who's in?

Peace, Love, and ear-muffs!!!

I asked this question:

What makes you just want to melt?

These are random answers from a variety of people in my life:

- Edward the vampire in Twilight
- Skinny jeans - so I can pour myself into them
- deep heart connections
- kissing
- a good hired housekeeper
- watching my children
- the smell of babies
- "mommy do you know what?" "what Julian?" " I love you."
- seeing a beautiful woman's soul
- Rumi, spilling from my lover's mouth, in a candlelit caravan in the forest
- the warm breath of a whisper in my ear
- a soft and gentle touch
- a cold beer after a long hot day

Peace, Love and Melting goodness!
