Third-force, I am going to KICK. YOUR. BUTT.

Boogie down the pounds!

Do you ever have moments in your life when you're doing something, and then you realize - "Gee...I'm weird."



Seriously.




Does that ever happen to anyone except me?



I was just in my kitchen, preparing a tasty snack (read: going to the pantry to get cheese flavored rice cakes.) and for some reason I decided walking wasn't going to get me there fast enough.  Or fancily enough.

So, I did a grapevine on the way to the pantry. I opened the door, grabbed the half eaten bag of rice cakes, stepped back with a turnout (i.e. the way ballerinas walk) and considered my options for the jazziest return to the table.
The final choice?  A triplet turn, arms in first position. There was another name for the way the arms are held - I remember my last dance instructor Karen teaching it to us.


(A video about doing a triplet turn...now imagine it slightly more graceful and while holding a bag of cheesy rice cake snacks.)



Man, those cheesy rice cake snacks were awesome....and totally worth dancing over.  They were multi-grain, too. 




I'm happy my friends already know I'm strange and still love me. <3
