She didn't quite know why she liked flamingoes so much. Maybe it was because there was a certain grace to them. Maybe because they were dressed in such a happy color. Or maybe seeing all those plastic ones in people's front yards finally got to her.

At any rate, taking ballet classes to achieve a lifelong dream of looking like a flamingo might be one bridge too far. Or several. Probably several.

While she stood out like a sore thumb among all the young children taking the lessons, she did feel majestic.

About as majestic as a plastic flamingo.

And she moved about as graceful.
