I love watching ballroom dancing. The graceful movement, the teamwork between partners, the costumes that are so over-the-top. Ballroom dancing is art, really. But just as with art, the world is better off with me as a spectator than a participant.
We humans naturally turn our anger, frustration, annoyance, and irritation into laughter. Eventually. Some of the funniest stories we tell on ourselves were things that got our goat (or llama or alpaca, whichever you choose) when they happened.
Laughter is vital for your survival and sanity. It reduces blood pressure, improves your immune system, increases good cholesterol, helps reduce headaches and other pain, lets us think more clearly, creates stronger emotional bonds, and so much more.
Hi, my name is Leigh Anne and I am a Holiday-a-holic. I celebrate all the winter holidays to excess. I hum carols in July. I’m here today to admit that I have a problem and to begin a 12-Step program for the holiday-addicted.

Spell-check doesn’t think “imperfectionists” is a word. It’s okay with “imperfectionist,” but make the world plural and oh no, it’s got a red line under it! That cracked me up. I guess there’s only one imperfectionist in the world and I am it!
The word “improv” scares people. To most, the idea of getting up in front of an audience and making up stuff on the spur of the moment seems like a form of torture instead of a fun way to pass a few hours while learning important life skills.
Hi, my name is Leigh Anne and I am a perennial-a-holic. I used to think I was just a social gardener, but more and more lately, I do it when I'm alone. I often buy perennials before noon and sneak them out of the car when no one is looking.
