1 hour dance night date night Thursday

[29pixie]

Went out dancing for an hour with Casey last night and GOD do I love swing dancing. We took Robert, which was also nice - he's so active in asking people to dance all evening that we don't have to worry about him feeling like a third wheel on our date dance night or anything. They played some good music and Casey and I were really just clicking. I love when Casey gets into the musicality a little bit more, and our basic lindy just was so much better when we made a few adjustments and had a song with a strong beat. I can't wait to dance with him at the wedding. I think now that we're just SO not interested in becoming like really good swing dancers and look at it as more of just, something we do for fun, we actually are much better! It's like trying to focus on better steps better counting better style all that crap was getting in the way of us actually DANCING. We have so much more FUN now that we don't care. Plus there was a shim sham dance which, even though I haven't done the shim sham in a long time, the steps came back to me surprisingly well! It was also fun to be asked to dance by some other people (and of course my obligatory dance with Jeff that is always so much fun) and it makes me happy to see that while Casey and I really do sort of have our own style together, I am a good enough follow to adapt to other partners' styles as well. Muscle memory is so cool when it comes to those moves that Casey doesn't do and I haven't seen in, well, years! Very fun.

Ok back to studying!
