...is that he still wants to be fed at 5am even if you just went to bed at 1:30. sigh. soooooo sleepy right now.

went salsa dancing at my dance studio last night with [livejournal.com profile] boutell... much, much fun! a very different experience from the first west coast swing dance i went to a year ago, where no-one danced with me and i was too shy to ask anyone and i just stood there for about 90 minutes before going home. this time, i knew a few people (although except for [livejournal.com profile] boutell, i didn't dance with anyone i'd met before), i danced a bunch of songs, and there was a nice balance of me asking people and others asking me. and for a beginner, i had some good dances with good dancers. win.

one thing it did show me, though, is that i do need to stay in the 2A class instead of just moving right to 2B. although i pick up moves quickly, i still need to learn them to begin with... there were moves that guys led last night that i was completely clueless about, and i don't want to be like that on the social dance floor. even if it means saving up some money and taking a private or two to learn those moves quickly before moving on, i still need to learn them.

oh -- and i discovered last night that a man who had been in my west coast swing performance class, is the father of a girl i went to high school with. talk about a small world!

off to shower and soak my feetsies... i am a sore, sore girl this morning. then the guy's coming to buy my chiminea, and with the cash i'm taking my boyfriend to the movies. yayyyyy saturdays!
