I love poi ^_^

I went to the 5th poi class out of 8 last night. It was so much fun (as always)!! I actually missed the 3rd class a couple weeks ago because the weather was getting kind of icky and I didn't want to drive into Minneapolis if the roads were going to be icy. I'm kind of sad that I missed it, but oh well. What's really funny is that every Thursday evening, after I get home from work, I feel so exhausted and just want to stay home for the night, but then I force myself to put on my shoes and coat again, and pick up my poi and go into the city, and then I ALWAYS have a TON of fun! I have to always remind myself that even if I don't feel like going right away, I'm going to have an awesome time with my poi and all my new friends. I really love it.

I don't know what I'm going to do when the classes end... I'm going to have to really force myself to keep practicing and playing on my own. I really do want to keep getting better and learning new things, and it's such a great fun workout! I think one of these days I'm going to have to go to one of the Spin Jams they always have going on around the area.

Hooray!!!!

OK, two things.

1. I think I am in love with FlyLady, or at least mildly obsessed with her awesome household cleaning and organizing tips! Such great stuff! And it's FREE! There's something good for everyone on there.


2. I was just notified by my boss that there have been "market adjustments" in my department, and my position is one of those affected. My first thought? "Oh, crap." But then he told me that it's good! And BAM, just like that, I got a raise! And it's a nice one, too... just over 8.5%! It actually went into effect last week, on the 16th of February, so I should see it on my March 15th paycheck. (We get paid every month on the 15th and the last day of the month.)

HOORAY for FlyLady! HOORAY for Corporate America!

Euro-Pizza

I have heard that people in England eat all kinds of CRAZY things on their pizza - like eggs or something. Well I went to the UK website for Domino's, and the only weird things I found were one pizza that included corn on it (along with a whole bunch of other, more "normal" toppings), and one that was called Domino's Tandoori Hot® - where the toppings were Tandoori chicken, onions, mushrooms, green peppers, and jalapeno peppers. Now THAT sounds good. But I guess we won't ever get it here because Indian food isn't nearly as popular as it is over there. But I bet it would be super awesome yummy good!

Maybe smaller, more funky pizza places have more weird toppings... but I can find those in NYC. I had eggplant pizza out there! Yummm!! It was like eggplant parmesan on a pizza crust. ^_^

I want to go to England and order Domino's now.
