Pros and Cons

So, I'm taking a belly dancing class through Reston Community Center, and I've recently discovered a few Pros and Cons...
Pros: Learning belly dancing, dancing said belly off (or at least in the process of), having a legitimate reason to splurge on an 'outfit'.
Cons: Getting belly dancing music stuck in your head, and having to constantly catch yourself to keep from doing dance moves to said music in your head.
My coworkers already think I'm strange enough-- it also doesn't help that my office-mate had no idea what WoW was, has no exposure to Harry Potter, and is otherwise generally UnGeeky.
Edit: I've also just discovered there are pros and cons to where my office is in the NMNH. We're on the same floor as a couple of other initiatives, but most of the wing is taken up by the Repatriation Office.
Pro: Being three doors down from a Repatriation Ceremony in progress.
Con: Not being able to work for an hour because you're so fascinated by the sounds of singing and bell-ringing floating up the hallway.

If you want to borrow my Zylls (a.k.a. hand/finger symbols) you are more than welcome to them.
Let me know how you like the classes, I would love to belly dance again.

Glad to see you're digging the class!
