What's your special talent?

Last night I watched "So you think you can dance?" and I thoroughly enjoyed myself.

Those of you who know me in person know that I LOVE to dance and I honestly believe that Eddie is to dancing as Mozart is to Music. I know what you are thinking - "Can Eddie's head get any bigger?" (Belive me, it can! I have to work on not being arrogant and prideful)

The thing is, when God put us together I think he gave each person some type of special talent.

I like to write, but I am not gifted in it and I have to work at it. I have to work at the web designs I do sometimes reworking the same graphic 10-20 times before I like the result, but when I dance, I don't have to work at it. The music comes on and I just move to it. I can tell you with all honesty that if they have auditons for the second season of "So you think you can dance" I will be there in a heartbeat.

So tell me, What's your special talent? I know you have one.

I don't think I really have one. I have many things that I am good at, but none that come naturally. I will have to ponder this question some more.. hmmm

I love to dance too, and sing and draw and write. But if I had to do any of that to save my life..I'd be dead already. I think my talent is making people laugh..yep comedy is my thing. Although it's not expressable through blog, if I were standing next to you right now, you'd be laughing your head off! Wait, maybe that's not the best way to put that.... :-D

All about the Music Eddo.

I watched the show also and I loved it. I love dance. Im not scared to say it. There was a couple guys that were amazing. My pick for the winner... DOnt know his name but he was best friends with a little girl that also made the cut and she had a odd last name... the scary thing is I remember his number 2424... HE danced to a slow song and one wore one shoe... amazing.


I just realized i might be gay

Writing is something pretty much everyone has to work on--although it comes easier for some than others.

I have a natural talent for walking.

Steve, I remember him as well. When he first came out with one shoe on I thought he was going to be lame. Then he started dancing and I almost started crying. It was like watching God create the Heavens and the Earth... very moving.

My exact words to a friend of mine...

He almost made me cry.

Dance is cool like that. Like music... expression

I'm remarkably good at getting cheated on and broken up with/divorced.

I'm not trying to be depressing, I just thought really hard about something that I was 'actually' 'genuinely' really good at, and this is it. It's the only thing I can do consistently and spectacularly and often.

I'm really good at shoe tying. I won 1st place in the 133 Bi-Annual national regional coastal shoe tying competition last year. I guess that’s my only really "talent" but back in High School I could throw footballs over mountains.

I SAW IT TOO - the oneshoed wonder on the show last night! He was amazing and as far as 'expressing himself' goes...incredible. Steve, you're not gay, just 'in touch' with your emotions :)
Stephen...come on, that's not it. I just don't 'belive' it (as some BlogMasters named Eddo like to put it...)

Oh yeah...my natural talent. Hmm, honestly - what comes so naturally I don't even have to think about it - is party planning. Any kind of party - I'm there. :)

I can sing "I Love Rock 'n Roll" by Joan Jett & The Blackhearts at an all-Spanish karaoke bar and get a standing ovation anyway! :)

I love dancing, and I'm a really good dancer. Not superstar great, but good.

I also like to do artistic things; draw, write, create. But I adore animals and tend to rescue them left and right. I guess God just sends them in my direction. I've rehabbed baby birds, a squirrel, turtles, a chinchilla, a chameleon, and more (including the baby possum I'm keeping - you can see her pics in my blog).

There's not enough paper, pen or memory to list all of my talents. I was trying to think of something I am not good at and I can' think of one thing. I am awesome, I admit it! And I have awesome children, the world is a better place because they all took after me! Beautiful, Talented, Amazing and Humble!! LOL!

Cody's talent is my favorite.

I also saw the guy with one shoe and was amazed. I also like the bigger guy that was a few before him.

Hmmm good at . . . . ugh does it make me sound sad to say I'm good at organizing and seeing a project through. I'd like to think I'm creative but nowhere near the talents fo others. But I would be there to support them in their individual talent and see it through to fruition through a wonderfully organized world and well thought out and carried out plans.

Ok so that does sound sad. Hmph.
