The belly saga



So Roy has recently returned to school and is gone until late on Tuesdays and Thursdays. In order to feel those lonely nights some friends and I turned to the classes offered by the community. These classes range from cooking classes to the fine arts. After perusing the catalog it was decided to add some spice in our life by taking a belly dancing class.




Unfortunately, by the time we had decided, the class was beyond full and we were left to our own devices. Making a run to the local library we picked up a how to book along with an instructional DVD. The DVD is put in and we eagerly await. What proceeded was something of an oddity. 5 girls all clumsily throwing hips and attempting such things like belly rolls and hip thrusts...we looked awesome! The best part of the night was us trying to follow the 12 girls in metallic workout suits as they alternated butt flexes. Pretty much all we could do was try a few and then laugh as the butts flexed unnaturally in unison. Jill commented that it looked like there were aliens punching their way out.




By the end of the night we had laughed most of our way through the DVD, and it can be safely said that we did not get anywhere near looking like belly dancers.
