Breathe. In . . and out . . .

Last night I was watching Dancing With The Stars and Marie passed out. First I thought she was just being funny, but she wasn't. During the commercial break, I realized, she forgot to breathe. I do that in practice sometimes, forget to breathe, but generally I remember after a few measures. Marie must not have breathed during the majority of her dance. Sure enough, when they filmed her after she came to, she said she got winded. (That was a little more than winded if you ask me)

Ok, but the cool part was, my landlord and landlady were at the taping. They were in the back row behind the judges, not an area much seen on camera. However, when Marie passed out, her family went to help her and left their seats open. Well, on television, they hate having empty seats, so they moved my landlady and landlord to their seats until the family got back. And I saw them! It was cool. They moved back to their original seats later, but it was still cool to see them. And they were interviewed for the show tonight too, so I hope they are on!

That's pretty rad! I used to have a problem with locking my knees in the shower so I'd come out feeling fainty. I actually fell one time. I used to forget to breathe while playing a wind instrument. Not good!

Let that be a lesson... breathing is a very important aspect of life! :) I too had to write a little something on the event as well.
