Kallisti Tribal, my Charm City dance sisters, will be performing a free set at Artdromeda tomorrow at 5:30! I sadly cannot go, because I just found out yesterday, and I've already committed to sitting with Jason as he gets a Giant Freaking Tattoo tomorrow. But my heart will be there. I am overscheduled through a lot of December, and this makes me sad!

In other news, my lovely dance partner marinatempest will be offering basic ATS classes in Baltimore starting in January. If you're interested in Tribal bellydance, or if you're a fusion performer and want to get down to the roots of Tribal, check it out! Flissy has her ATS General Skills Certification and is a committed, gracious teacher.

As for me, today is: posting new earrings, finishing a few commissions, packaging up Earring Club pieces, and announcing next year's Earring Club themes.

To raise money for my OWN ATS General Skills Certification in February, my next collection will be dance inspired. I currently have lots of delicious bits and bobs winging their way to me from Turkey. I am excited. Hopefully it will go live in the week before Christmas-- I'm really excited about this one!
