I'm feeling enormously better. I did both dance classes today without too much trouble. I have the advanced students working on combinations. The most recent combination is a grapevine with a maya and a shoulder shimmy. We also did grapevines with accented mayas. I've tried throwing undulations into the mix, but I need a lot more practice before I'd think about tossing that into a performance. And since I was feeling so much better today, I did a pistol, just to see if I could. I could, and I did, although it was shaky as hell. I was prepared to go in to work tonight, but I was already scheduled out because of my doctor's note. So I get to go in tomorrow instead. Oh goody! There's nothing more I love in this world than being on the phones for eight hours!
Being sick for more than a week has given me plenty of opportunity to watch lots of bad movies (and some good ones, too). I've been too braindead to do anything cerebral, so bad movies hit the spot. Over the past week, I've watched the following flicks:
- Tarzan & The Trappers: Really terrible adventure movie. Tarzan is the ur-Hercules.
- The Fifth Element: Fun movie, but what a dreadful ending.
- Stargate: Ugh!
- Shark Attack 3: Megalodon: So bad it ought to be a classic. Hilariously awful.
- Vampires Vs Zombies: Must be one of the worst movies ever made. EVER.
I wish I could be paid to sit and watch bad movies. I'd be such a hard worker!
Tonight, I think I'll be playing RoboRally. Maybe I'll watch a movie afterwards.
In the meantime, check out these links:
- Kingsland Man Accused Of Setting Up Meth Lab In K-Mart Bathroom: Now that's what I call cheeky!
- Substitute Arrested After Giving Students Pot: This sounds like a scenario in a teen movie.
- Poor show by Einstein look-alikes: "A New York university planned to mark the 127th birthday of genius physicist Albert Einstein by bringing dozens of his look-alikes together in a room."

Cool!
[off I go to see if I can do it..]
[nope.]
What's an accented maya?

So, something like this: bump up with hip, circle out and down. Bump up with other hip, circle out and down. Or you can do a drop instead of a bump up.
