I've had this shot - or something along the same lines in mind for about 10 days now.

Pole dancing classes went back today after a three week hiatus. I've been doing it for about 2 years now and my hands show the evidence. Over Christmas my aunt (who knows all about my extra curricular activities and is highly entertained by them) saw the size of my callouses and immediately told me I have to stop - "Your a lady, your hands shouldn't look like that!"

Needless to day she is probably going to have heart failure when she sees today's photo (and she will, she reads my blog - Hi auntie Di *waves*) which is the result of a 1 hour class and the mixture of shaving cream, rosin and hairspray (for grip).

Not exactly lady like is it?

Anyway... in addition to being my first class back for the year it was also my first time in the advanced class :-S I fully expected to be incapable of almost every new trick I tried. However, it wasn't too bad :-) and apart from the inevitable bruises (don't laugh, I've had doctors and beauticians alike look at me funny and start asking probing questions when they see my bruises because they fear I might be being abused) and sore muscles that I expect to start appearing sometime in the next few hours... well it went kind of well.

Thats all for me for today.

Until tomorrow much love,
D.
