Walking woman


Alrighty friends, Today we start off with a pop quiz. Who knows where this song is from............

“ I got a new way to walk. Walk walk. I got a new way to walk. Walk walk. I got a new way to walk and i feel like dancing!”

I will reveal the answer in my next post but will award you sometime, not sure what yet but something very fun if you can name where that is from.
Now on that topic, walking, I would like to say this....... I LIKE IT! When i first moved here i thought that walking to the internet cafe was too far at times. It is maybe 4 blocks away. Now, i walk everywhere. Even in the rain i will opt for my own to feet instead of the bus or a cab. Now don't get me wrong, after a long day of work or after a bar and my heels are on, i am all for the cab but today i am appreciating my walks. Maybe it is that the summer air smells so good and fresh and clean. OR maybe i have just adapted to the Vancouver way of life who knows...... I just know that i have enjoyed my walks today.

Finally i have come around and my mel goes and gets herself a car. Man, I am going to hate walking soon.

I would also like to say that you can tell a lot about a person by the way they walk. I walked home with a floater and a bouncer today. The floater walk is very sexy. Just gliding along. Me myself, i think i strut. Yah i said it........ I am a strutter, my hips move and float and bounce all at the same time. Hey baby, if you got back, you got back you gotta do it.

Quote of the day
“oh the songs we hide, singing them only to ourselves”
-Theodore Roethke
*i would like to add that today's quote is dedicated to mel who put up with the songs i DID NOT hide during our walk in kits beach on Monday.

    That song sound Abba-esque ?

    My biggest worry about the car is that I too will loose my lust for walking! :) My personal rule is "no car downtown. anywhere"... hopefully it will stick...
