Laughing at Myself...

SO... In 2008, Slumdog Millionaire was released. The song at the end and the dance that goes with it, Jai Ho, have become the rage. Here is a video of the dance breakout in the Ole Miss student union:





We went to the pool last week and the kids saw the swim team dancing it together and wanted to learn it. SO... I investigated to make sure there was no hidden meaning or agenda behind it, and after determining it to be "safe" I embarked on learning the dance so I could teach it. I think I have it down but I know I look ridiculous doing it. My husband caught a clip of me on his phone last night when I was practicing. And Carter is hilarious trying the moves and Addie basically gallops in a circle around us. If we can coordinate ourselves I MIGHT get Daniel to video us doing it all together. But a thirty-year-old woman struggled to learn this simple dance much more than she would have ten or twelve years ago. Still, it's been a lot of fun...

And the funniest part by far has been Hank making up his own words since the lyrics are in Indian. There's this part where he starts singing, "Itchy, itchy, scratchy, scratchy, now I got one down my backy..." I about collapse in hysterics and can't keep dancing. It's just very Hank.
