I Disappeared for a Few Days
Oct. 10th, 2006 11:07 pm( And here's a summary of what i did while i was gone )
Today, i: awoke at almost noon, ate, bathed, dressed, went to Baltimore to return one bow and buy the other, stopped in Greenbelt to chill and change, then went to my first in a series of ragtime/swing dance classes at the JCCGW in Rockville with my friend Sarah. Today we covered posture, arm position, one-step, turns, partner-changing, and spins. This is my first dance class in more than 20 years. I learned that partner-changing in a non-structured environment is a very different thing from a structured partner-switching dance, which ought not to have been surprising, but it's a very different mindset, especially for me as a gay man. My partner and i are the only single people in the class. I must ask her what she's told her coworkers about me. I think i'm being pretend boyfriend, but not sure.
