Count On Me

Count On Me by Bruno Mars

I just wanted to update whoever is interested that for the Celtic Celebration show on March 12, I am now in 4 things. I was recruited back into Celtic Beat for one dance in this show- but now I'm in 4. This makes me happy. Even better-all are hardshoe numbers. Reel Around The Sun, The Drunken Piper, and debuting Horse With A Heart. I'm also in the a capella finale number we do. Horse With A Heart is a dance my teacher just came up with like three weeks ago, and we've been working hard at getting all the wrinkles out so it's going to be GREAT! Mindy and I have the hardshoe duet-it's pretty fun and has some sweet footwork.
I love dance. I love putting on my shoes and dancing for as long as I possibly can. I do it often. There's something liberating about laying it all out on the floor. Structured or freestyle, soft or hard shoes. It doesn't even matter what music you use. It's basically awesome. I may be a bit addicted-but hey, there's a lot worse things to be addicted to.
I am also designing a few sweatshirts that I'm so excited about. I found good lightweight sweatshirts for $5. Win. And I have some pictures of cool Celtic knots and designs I'm going to work out and put on them. I can't find and Irish sweatshirts that I like-so I'm taking matters into my own hands. I am excited to see how it turns out. I'll post pictures when I'm done.
On the music front: Ryan Star=amazing. I adore this man and his music. If you haven't heard any of his stuff, do so now. I also got Bruno Mars CD, and there's an amazing friendship song on there that just reminds me of all my friends. Here's a lyric snippet: "If you ever find yourself stuck in the middle of the sea, I'll sail the world to find you. If you ever find yourself lost in the dark and you can't see, I'll be the light to guide you. Find out what we're made of, When we are called to help our friends in need. You can count on me like one, two, three. I'll be there and I know when I need it I can count on you like four, three, two. And you'll be there 'cause that's what friends Are supposed to do." Also Alana Grace and Rachael Yamagata.
Work is work. But I love my clients and the people I work with. Nothing really new in that area, it's pretty consistent. Speaking of work, I need to go because I have to get ready for work.
Later.
