Life Happens NOT to be kicking up her heels.....

So I have danced can can for several years. Sometimes we get good costumes....and sometimes not. They have been black and purple, Hot pink and neon yellow, too-revealing in pink and black, and most recently peacock blue. We have bought cheap costumes and expensive costumes, but as in most things...you get what you pay for.

The $120 Costumes
This year, we were told they are *gasp* $22! I think they expected us to jump up and down, cheering that we saved $100 on each one....but sadly no. I cna't find a picture of an adult wearing them...and I dont' think I will ever put this on...but for your shock and amazement, this is what they expect us to wear.

Oh yeah, we are supposed to walk around all night and "flirt". I think not. It was fun while it lasted but I think the time has come for me to put my fishnets away (at least till Sunday) and depart gracefully.
I do want to say that I'm not leaving *only* becuase of the costume. I'm not THAT petty. But last year was a disaster, I want to go to school, and do trapeze (In addition to everything else) so I think that this was just the breaking point for me.
