Dance, Dance, Dance All Night Long

I've always toyed with the idea of ballroom dancing lessons so when I found adult dance lessons at the Lawrence Arts Center I jumped on the idea and immediately signed up... without telling Cesar. Our lessons started Thursday night and I told him about them on Wednesday night. He had no way out. After an hour of pretending he wasn't interested he finally said, "You know, I took dance lessons when I was a kid. I'll probably be better than you."

Our lessons are every Thursday evening for an hour. We started with the Foxtrot and we'll eventually learn to Waltz, Salsa and Swing dance.

I don't imagine we'll get a call from American Best Dance Crew anytime soon. Between us we've got four left feet, no patience and a whole lot of sweating. Come on now, I quit dancing as a child after one season and Cesar's only claim to fame is his time in the court of honor at a quiñceanera.

In all honesty, we're enjoying it and we can't wait to become professionals!
