Awesome, Suzi!
I wish PE had taught us useful things, like yoga or knot-tying or climbing. Instead we had THE VIRGINIA REEL (I mean, come on) and bombardment. Although I did love playing with the parachute.
I don't like vampires. I'm gonna take a stand and say they're not good.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
If you are actually hungry you'll probably keep food down, meara, but I'd start out easy, like broth or crackers or a banana or something like that.

Thrive to spite them
I'd try some saltines first and see how you do and if you can keep them down try a little bit of a banana.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I read that as VAGINA REEL and was all, uhh...for a moment. I mean, I hated PE classes, but that was mostly just because I never mastered trashtalking.

The Vagina Reel is AP-level.

For me it was because I never mastered not getting hit in the face with the ball.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I liked the Virginia Reel! And watching Downton Abbey made me want to go line dancing or square dancing or whatever.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I also never mastered no getting hit in the face with the ball. I still haven't, although I have recently (like at 35) mastered catching something rather than ducking!
I had a secret love for the Virginia Reel and all square dancing. The only problem was the whole picking people, getting picked, etc-- that was awful. But once that was over, and especially if it was with friends, I had a ball! In fact, in high school a group of friends and I went square dancing regularly and it was SO MUCH FUN

Try contra dancing! Lots of fun and not too hard.
I have no bananas or saltines in the house. Was planning a whole "eat healthy with spinach and oranges and fish" thing (um, not all at the same time) Though after not eating other than brunch yesterday, I weighed myself this morning and the second number on the scale changed. Which was cool, if unsustainable.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
I took tap dance as PE through high school. Except for 9th grade. I only remember basketball in 9th grade, but we probably did other things. In middle school I went to a tiny private school. We did handball, basketball, gymnastics, and fencing.

I didn't mind the square dancing -- I mean, it was better than getting beaned during bombardment -- but it's not exactly a *useful* skill. Knot-tying and climbing are practical!
Do you have any applesauce, meara? Even just plain toast might work.
