My newest hobby...

It's no secret that I hate this time of year.

The pool will likely be closed tomorrow and I'm holding back the tears.

Last year around this time we decided to re-do the porch and make it a playroom for Jocelyn and get the wood floors put in... so I was busy organizing that and getting ready for my house to become a construction zone.

So now I'm sitting here wondering... what the hell am I going to do for the next 6 or 7 months?

I decided to try something new this year and instead of spending money- I'd do something worthwhile with myself... so I'm taking a new dance class.

Sound boring?

It's called Striptease.

Now do I have your attention?

It's actually quite fun and excellent exercise. I'm literally a pool of sweat when I get done, which, to me, isn't entirely sexy...but Dave considers it money well spent (or at least that's what he tells me.)

They teach you multiple dance routines and the choice of music is enticing to say the least. The first routine we learned was to the song "In Public" by Kelis. It's a very... uhmmm... appropriate...interesting and uhhh "cute" song.

Dave always tries to watch me practice, but I'm not quite drunk I mean good enough for an audience yet. But hang on to your dollar bills... you never know if there will be a recital.

Cheers, S.
