I found out that I am indeed registered to vote (because duh I voted 4 years ago and why would I need to re-register? I think I thought that I needed to register for this election, but voting doesn't really work that way right? You just need to be registered in general and as long as you don't move I believe you're set.) For some reason I forgot that I had voted previously, perhaps I just can't believe we've lived here (and in the same apartment!) for four whole years. The website says I'm registered so I'm going with that.

So I should be able to vote in the primaries, but tomorrow I also have my final recall day for jury duty. What to do what to do? (Okay the answer is probably get up at ass o'clock in the morning to vote and be on time for jury duty.)

I'm kind of excited now.

In other news ballet class yesterday was awesome. Note that it was my first ballet class in 13 years. My bellydance teacher recommended it as a way to work on my upper body posture.

I came in frazzled because I was running late, could not find parking due to an anti-Scientology protest (who wakes up and says "my cause is hating the scientologists"?), and hadn't sewn the elastics onto my newly purchased ballet slippers. Fortunately [livejournal.com profile] insptr_penguin and her pink thread came to the rescue! Class went pretty well. I was able to follow along on all but a couple of the across the floor exercises. It felt pretty quick, somewhat familiar, and quite good.

I felt considerably less self conscious after we started and of course because [livejournal.com profile] insptr_penguin was there for moral support. (PS she can touch the toes of one foot and put the other leg straight up in the air, like a split while standing up, it looks really cool. My leg is closer to a 90 degree angle rather than 180.) I am only mildly sore this morning (sore enough to want to stretch but not to take any pain reliever, perhaps I will go to yoga tonight?) I think I'll probably go to a drop-in ballet class on a semi-regular basis.
