Did you call *moi* a dipshit?

Can somebody explain to me how I let myself get talked into doing 5 dance numbers on Sunday? Please? Anybody? At least Shira promised I could be in the back for the second class' numbers. That is if I have the guts to get on the stage at all.

Last night was absolutely the most gruelling physical effort I've ever put out for belly dance. The room we were in was quite stuffy to begin with, and after going through the improv stuff, then doing the routine about 4 or 5 times I was already drooping. Swallowed half my bottle of water before class 2 began and we all attempted to do a little more improv to an Eartha Kitt tune. We barely made it through and Shira took pity and turned it off to let us work on the choreographies. This was when I realized we were indeed doing three more for class 2.

Dear god I'm going to be performing "Istamim Babacim" and "Tinni Minni Hanem" after all. *whimper*

We went through all the numbers then I got the bright idea to ask if we could do them in the order we would be for the recital. Shira smiled and I knew I was in trouble as she started at the very beginning with class 1's choreography. So we did all 5 numbers and all 7 of us were about ready to drop. I have sincere regard for all the folks doing not only the choreographies, but improv and solos too. Wow.

We also found out last night that if we don't have reservations for this place we will have nowhere to sit. Not to say that esmerel and I will have much time for sitting, but we'd like to be able to talk to everyone who does go. So has anyone actually made reservations yet? If so could you add the three of us to them? We may well be screwed otherwise.

Also is there any way to find out exactly who is going? I'm just curious.

Ok, well wish me luck on the cat today, hopefully my friend won't space again and I will have a kitty by this evening.

Crunches: Oh I don't think so.
