Swing

[devilgrrl]

Steven and I got back a little while for our first night of swing classes. We've been talking about learning to dance for a while and I've occasionally tried to teach Steven a couple of the basics. I love dance; I danced for 10 years as a kid, ballet, jazz, and gymnastics, and took swing lessons the summer I graduated.

Brown Uni has a swing dance club. It's open to the public and, the best part, it's FREE. The class tonight wasn't exactly beginner, but we did talk to the instructors and got a tip about coming to the Monday free dance for more instruction. I know what we'll be doing next Thursday.

I still don't have much of an appetite, so the Flu Diet continues, as well as the weight loss. Good thing about this: losing weight. Bad thing about losing weight: none of my clothes fit anymore.

I had more to write, but I am dead tired.

I really want to get out an Contra again. There's a free one at MIT up here

Free dance classes are seriously the best thing ever.

oooh I love swing dancing!

I know what you mean about the losing weight being a two edged sword. This is why I have different wardrobes in two different sizes. One for the fat size me, and one of the skinny size me... :D

Yea, I'm packing up the clothes that don't fit anymore. Figures, I just donated all of my skinny clothes. Oh well, I suppose I could buy a belt.

Swing dancing is bomb!
