Good grief! Is it that time of year again? Been so out of the loop that I don't know at all whats happening in the world of swing... Love to everyone's favourite physicist, and also the swedish one ...

The savoy ball was... OK. I'm also going to the London Lindy Exchange but besides that there is nothing else on my dance card... Hmmmm maybe Dublin?

I have less energy for swing dance as well. Not because of age, but because I'm less into it now. Ah, so many good memories there...

wow. i'm definitely getting old. i KNOW that i am not unfit. i do yoga and running, for goodness sake! And tap dancing too!

but suddenly my feet can't move fast enough and i can't do my lindy turns fast enough on the fast songs. I feel heavy and like a block of granite. GRRR by the end of the ball my feet hurt so much we just went to the smoker's corridor and chilled out there, and then drank some more.

I met your friend Jeanine - this singaporean dancer who is here doing her art history PHD. she's really nice. Smart and sweet, but suffers from the 'singaporean dancer syndrome' - not knowing how to shake that ass! Took me years to unlearn that.

Oh yes- my only claim to fame is that now Zach knows my name. haha. L wanted to introduce us but Zach said 'You're dawn right?'. Wha. cheap thrill.

Anyway, come to herrang and play again!
