I hate it when people cancel on me. It depresses me.

Oh well. Five positives to cheer me up:

1. I still have a date tonight, and it will be a good one.
2. I have lovely daffodils on my desk.
3. I have a nice bottle of port at home.
4. I am working on a menu for dinner with a couple of dear friends, for whenever that happens to happen.
5. I will be having some fun on Sunday with a good bunch of friends, and will cook LAMB. Yum.

Ooh, I'm in love.

Attention belly dancers in the audience! If you like the old skool belly dance music, I've got a find for ya: Radio Bastet. They have tons of podcasts of "vintage belly dance music." Examples:

--Eddie "The Sheik" Kochak
--Ozel Turkbas
--George Abdo and the Flames of Araby
--Harry Saroyan
--Artie Barsamian
--John Berberian

It's pretty darn awesome. I forgot my iPod at home today, but then I remembered this. Of course, it's possible that everyone in the world was aware of this already and I was the only one who hadn't discovered it. But hey, I just discovered it and I thought I'd share. :)

I'd like to just put this on and dance sometimes.
