Back To My Routine

File Under: No longer a TV hostage

Belinda's appearance on Dancing With the Stars meant that I needed to be home Monday evenings so that I could cast my votes by phone and online. Phone votes could be cast up t0 30 minutes after the end of the telecast. Online votes could go into early the next day. I've never voted in the past so I would watch the show later in the evening after going about my evening routine. I haven't been to the gym on Monday or Tuesday evenings in 2 weeks. With the outcome of last night's show, I can now resume my routine.

No more speculation about what happened. It's over, Belinda gave it her best. She was sweet when she said that she felt bad for her partner because she feels like she let him down. On a happy note, she can now return to France to be with her husband, her son, and her pets, including her one-eyed, wheelchair-bound pug.

Tonight, it's laundry night...no gym for me. I'll resume that tomorrow. I've done so well and in about 1o weeks, it'll be street festival season. :)

Scenes From the Curb

File Under: Stuff and Nonsense

Vahona and I like street fairs. Food on a stick, people watching, vendor booths and live music. Last summer I drove to Portage to whisk Princess Whoosh off to Chicago for some street fair fun. We went to the Southport Street fest where we had a fun day in the sun. We took a break and sat on the curb to listen to some live music. While down there, we watched the crowd dancing. I took this little video because we were entertained by this person. Mind you, we don't know who she is, and I'm sure she's a very lovely individual and I'm not saying anything bad about her dancing. I'm just not saying anything good about it.
