salsa dancing

Well, my night of fun salsa dancing ended disappointingly. Mostly because it ended early. My roommates all wanted to leave, so what was I supposed to do? I felt bad, and then even worse for one of the reasons I wanted to stay. But man I wanted to keep dancing. I love to dance! and I actually found a guy friend who likes to do it too...and we're both bad. He can't keep the rhythm and I can't follow, but it was still a blast. Maybe next time. I just want to know what I'm doing. But I got this card for a free group lesson, and I am seriously considering using it. I want to dance. Just for fun. Because it's good exercise and because I'm good at it (though more at the improv than the actual moves right now). And I just love the atmosphere. Famous Dave's salsa night is fun, without feeling like there are just a bunch of sleazy guys there trying to pick you up. It's just a bunch of people going to dance. I wish I had stayed and gotten a ride home from one of the guys there (one of the ones we were with, not just any random guy...that would be asking for it). It would have been a little awkward, but maybe it would have been worth it. The mistake was taking the roommate who didn't really want to be there in the first place and letting her drive. And only taking one car. I won't make that mistake again. I don't hold anything against her, I should have just not tried as hard as I did to convince her. Yeah. Next time it's going to be an all-nighter, where I'm so tired by the end that I can barely move. That will feel good.
