Something New

I tried something new today—belly dancing. It’s offered through my gym and I’ve been meaning to go, but for some reason was a bit afraid to do it. So, today I went and had a great time. It was great fun to be in a situation where you’re supposed to wiggle your giggly bits. Granted I think I looked a bit more like a chicken having a seizure than a mysterious woman gracefully shimmying to the beat with mesmerizing arms. But hey, everyone’s got to start somewhere. I also liked it because it loosened me up—something I desperately need. I can be so stiff sometimes and I hate that. Anything that can make me even an iota less self conscious is worth its weight in gold.

Note to self: try new things more often.
