Hi diddle lee dee!

Disney World was great. I wish I had as much energy as I did when I was a kid. I also wish I wasn't so jaded at the beginning. Once I let go of my cynical demeanor, I began to feel that childlike side of me wake up. Somewhere between the spinning tea cups with my sister and my niece and Space Mountain with my sis and brother-in-law, my inner child began to come alive. I couldn't help but miss my dad. He was all that was missing from the picture.

Coming home was bittersweet. I left the wonderful world of Disney and danced straight into the arms of a man with eyes as cool and blue as the deep blue sea. Oh, my, but do I like him. But my time home was short lived.

I am currently en route to New York City. I'm going to see all the old beloved faces and places. It might be emotional, but it'll be good for me. My boat was meant to be rocked, and I kinda like it like that.

Use It or Lose It

So I took out my tap shoes today and went down to the garage. My attempts were a pathetic cacophony. I've never been really good at tap to begin with, and if you thought I was bad then, well, there's a new level of incompetence. You'd think I'd never had a tap class a day in my life. It was pitiful. So, a new goal is to try to get my tap shoes on and practice this week, because quite frankly, these tap shoes are way too expensive for me to have if I'm not using them. Speaking of which... so were my rock climbing shoes... looks like I have a lot of work to do.
