Really, Eshe's party back this summer was so much fun for all of us.

Here is the long delayed footage of me with Aladeen. I'm guessing this is my...what..4th time with live music.

It is what it is...which is a marked improvement from the time before when I danced with Aladeen and was all stressy.

This is the first time I've seen clips of you dancing and you're just wonderful. I love that you don't have the "Western Head" :)

I'm curious, what is "Western Head"?

I'm curious too...

I mean, I know I've got Western Nose...the tallest nose in all the land! Do tell me what Western Head is.

I mean that bad habit that a lot of Western dancers have of not moving their heads whilst belly dancing. It's like their heads are not part of the process, it stays perfectly level, never moves with the music.

I'm not trying to be hypercritical - I'm a pretty crap dancer myself, but I watch a lot of it and it's just something I noticed about some dancers.

Oh!

Yes, I know what you're talking about, just never had a name for it.

Nice!

I dig the zilling with the live music. :) You do look worlds more comfortable than the previous clip.

Yay, it's the peacock costume! I did feel like the swag of beading hanging from the bra got lost in this light. And also I understand now why sometimes arm bands have a little chiffon drape or something; I don't think it'd go with this costume but I feel like in this light level it could be a very good thing.

I think it's helped me realize that I am fairly good at knowing when I am having and off night and when I'm not.

I'm ok with the disappearing beading of the swag. Today's really minimal costumes are far more simple.

I need to bling up the basic pink Sahar I own so it's me.

I think because I mostly saw the basic models with the giant swaths of fabric over the chest (I know you're close enough to my height to understand why that would look problematic to me), I never quite got why people had any interest in Sahars. Quite a few of those are very nice, though.
