Swing Heil!

I found a guy tonight that was willing to teach me lindy hop :D  So I learned the basic, and I'm going to find him at the next dance to teach me more.  He was really nice to do that

The Lindy Hop? That's the dance in 13F and looks like you might well break your neck trying...

You're braver than me ;-)

Yeah, it's got some big airials, but they don't typically do those here. The guy was explaining that when you dance lindy, your center of gravity is on your partner, so if either one of you were to let go, you'd both fall backwards. It's a pretty energetic dance, I'm looking forward to learning more :D

Sounds fun! (I couldn't do it, of course, but it still sounds fun.)

I swear, there's a "Spinner" everywhere. I remember the one at the Grad in Davis. >_< And then he wonders why no one wants to dance with him. I've only done the Lindy twice... it's so fast paced... and fun!

THE HELP?!

I'm not sure whether I ought to laugh hysterically or cry for you, dearie! I didn't know we still existed in the day of serfdom. Some say the middle ages are dead, BUT I SAY YOU'RE THE HELP! :D *hugs*

I adore you, anyway, you know.

I'm glad dance is going well--it sounds like a lot of fun.

Of course you're the help. Just like in Gosford Park. Be excited. Be very excited.

Uh, yeah... I so know what I meant by that... Anyway, dammit, I went to work last night instead of dancing. I made a good chunk of money and woke up sicker today than I've been feeling for the past few days, but still... Throwing twenty kids around a gymnastics gym isn't the same as being thrown around basketball gym by a man I've never met before. Ok, that sounded weird. I'm done.
