I went swing dancing today.
I was sitting at The Bistro with Sally, DJ and David after a long day of skating,
Jones soda and ice cream, when I decided to go attempt to nicely ask the attractive
young lady outside if I could have a cigarette.
And, to my surprise, she complied with a smile.
We made small-smokers talk and then she asked if I was here for the swing dancing.
Apparently The Bistro has Swing dancing night every Monday.
I said I didn't know anything about it but thought it sounded interesting.
So, she invited me to a little swing lesson.
It was more fun then I thought it would be.
I convinced DJ to give it a shot too (I mean, what the hell! You might as well give it a shot. It's not going to kill you.)
and after a little while of dancing around with crazy (but good) swing dancers, DJ and I decided we would come back next Monday.
It was one of the most unexpected moments I've had in awhile.
But it felt good doing something spontaneous and unplanned.
Cha-ching.
In other, less random news, things have been busy lately.
I have this feeling (I generally don't pay attention to them) that
we'll be on the move again soon. Or we'll be traveling at least.
But, that's just a thought...just a thought.
