Random Wednesday – The Lead

Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010

I have never been horribly bad at ‘structured’ dancing but haven’t been great at it either. So the word “Average” describes me accurately when it comes to the arm, leg coordination on a dance floor. Meaning that you’ll never see me at the auditions of “So you think you can dance”, unless it’s day one. Even for day one, I’m won’t make for entertaining material, because who wants to see ‘average’ on stage, instead of incredibly awkward and bad dancers, or amazing “I can fly through the air while doing splits’ dancers? This week I took my averageness out to try Salsa dancing. Some people were good, some bad, and some just like me. I once again confirmed that I don’t enjoy myself when trying to remember the steps, and that I tend to lead. Watch out Mr. Macho Guy, I’ll lead you around the dance floor in high heels… Mental note: be less bossy or find a guy who can actually lead! Salsa was fun, I might even go again. Yay, for doing things out of my usual repertoire!

Does anyone else absolutely dislike when they go for a haircut and get a chatty stylist who talks non stop for an hour? I enjoy my haircuts in silence or at least having a productive conversation. My new stylist talks about everything and is way too detailed. I don’t really want to hear (second time around, cause she didn’t remember me from November) about her daughter-in-law and how mean she is, and the grandkids and how cute they are, and everything else in between. She also asks inappropriate questions, and makes even more unfitting comments. Such as “Oh you’re still young, but you should really think about having kids!” Umm.. yes.. thanks for the heads up… It’s time for another hair salon! Suggestions?

I like my tea served in buckets! Thanks to Ian Sobolev for the photo.

Random Wednesday – Boxes

Wednesday, November 11th, 2009

Tea, check. Computer, check. Music, check. Orange cape, check. Wait, scratch the last one. I don’t wear a cape while making blog posts! Just cause it makes me feel like a ‘lean, mean, blogging machine’ it doesn’t mean I have one. It’s not fleecy, warm, and superhero-y… I swear! Well now that we got our awkward moment out of the way, lets start Random Wednesday.

  • I can’t think with music on! I can do pretty much anything while music is playing, just not think, write, read, or run. Well the running things is due to me not being aware of surroundings, so it doesn’t really count. But the other three vitally important functions are definitely not friends with music. I can be reading the same page for an hour if music is playing, my mind will just wonder off. Wait.. that means I can think … hmm, just contradicted myself, maybe I should turn off the music! Let’s rephrase, I can’t do any productive thinking. In times of need my working environment goes silent, rain against the window helps the process! Cause who would ever have a desire to go outside in the rain and take some photos… Wait.. I would.. Hmmm.
  • On the prestigious number two this week is my desire to get a haircut! When my hair is starting to go flat on one side, and back is growing into a mullet wanna be, it’s time to chop it off. Hair, I have no sympathy for you! So the problem is that my hairstylist lady is ‘sick and it’s not known when she’s coming back”.  I hope she didn’t quit. That place have a reputation for hairstylists quitting on them. My last one walked out an hour before my appointment… I’ll be trying again tomorrow.
  • I looked around the room, and there it was, or better yet.. there THEY were. Boxes upon boxes.. of … boxes. How did I ever end up owning so many pretty boxes is beyond me. I keep telling myself that one day I’ll use them for something, still waiting for that day. Here is my tiny unconscious collection, and that’s not including all the tea tins!
