Turning Me Round and Round

Touring DaVinci with Andree

I woke up this morning to Santana's Smooth on my radio.
I jumped right up out of bed and started bellydancing.
Okay...you can laugh...fortunately the only one watching was my kitty, who eyed me curiously. I think I'm going to feel it tomorrow.


Cliff and I had a serious talk about my future last night. Okay...you can laugh...I am well beyond the age of asking "what are you going to do when you grow up?" This conversation is unprecedented in my life; there is a person [an intelligent and successful person] from far away who will actually share and sympathize with me. It feels very strange and wonderful. If it had not been for SL and a "accidental" meeting, this would never happen, not because my RL friends and family don't love me. I learned long ago not to reveal my dreams to the people around me; I would be begging for ridicule. There are too many reasons I wouldn't be able to achieve my dreams, according to those closest to me. Just be safe and do what you're told, they would say; you are the most successful you are ever going to be and, in this economy, you should be happy you have a job. I won't dwell on it.

I have put in almost all my hours this week and I think I'll be able to sneak out early today; there is something important I want to do, something important to me.
