contra dancing
8 Sep 2002 01:08 ami'm a better shrink than either of mine. of course, it doesn't count for self-shrinkage, but i'm sure i'm quite helpful to other people. meanwhile, i went contra-dancing!
it was a wild asparagus night and we got to the grange just after the beginner's workshop. there were lots of inept newbies stumbling around with the experienced dancers and i was still quite weak, so i only danced... four? three? something like that. anyway. was given approving looks by some of the more experienced dancers and i discovered that it didn't take more than a bit to get back into the swing of things. my ability to triple-twirl under the neighbor's arm on one of those little promenades has not been impaired at all.
also did some really AWESOME dances with multiple long wavy lines to be balanced. the music made me shiver. i bought one of their cds.
