Twisted jelly and pretzel legs.

Can't BELIEVE the things they make you do fpr P.E. OK. So Teacher's Day is coming and say, why don't we learn some social dances the liven things up on that day?? Yup. The dances have such interesting names too. Names like the "Little Hazelnut" (do they mean horses or falling nuts; all that prancing could mean either) The other was even funnier - didn't know blacksmiths originated from the Institute of the Mentally Inept. The dance was called "Hammersmith" and it involved lots of clapping...and I mean really. I always thought smiths were busy people, didn't know they had time for dancing in circles. Then again, they might have been freaking out because it was the Black Death, and that's when the song "Ring around the Roses" originated from.

After all that is said and done, the stupid dances were quite fun. At the very least it was excercise...but wouldn't I give anything for badminton lessons again next week... Now, I ache in all the wrong places and my feet feel permanently twisted from all the feet crossing steps...But hey. It wa all in the name of a bit of fun.
