  • Blues in the City – So much Fun!

    Just got back about half an hour ago from Blues in the City at the Academie Duello on Richards & Hastings downtown.  First time blues dancing, saw a lot of people there I knew from Swing on Saturdays.  Made it in time for the drop-in lesson at 10:15pm; Tova, Laura, Angie, Taryn [edit: so apparently I've had her name wrong the last few months, Doh!... Tamara?], a few other faces I recognised were there for the drop-in lesson.  Others showed up later, lots of familiar faces like Kathleen, her friends Alex and Brit (who I never actually danced with tonight), Shannon, Andrea (first time since Jacqueline left), Chris (both of them), Jackie, etc. etc.  Stayed till the end at around 3am.  Got the idea to email a photo or two to Jacqueline since she’d kept trying to get me out to Blues.

    Still working on remembering new names.  Met a few new people, like Laura’s friends Kim and Erica?.  Enjoyed myself immensely.

    Had skipped dinner, so got a beef lasagna from waves (came with toast, yum) before heading home.

    *sigh* if only there was blues every Fri along with swing every Saturday.
