Traveling.
I'm leaving town for a few days and headed out to explore the wilderness. And by "the wilderness" I mean "another town."
My first week of tango, a girl came in from another city. (Not that I could tell, I was so new to tango I didn't know anyone, but I asked her where she usually danced and got a different city. Behold my deductive powers!)
She was like an exotic bird with her comme il fauts (the first pair I ever saw), her ankles glued together, her perfect balance. When she told me she'd been dancing two years, I was ravenously jealous that she'd gotten so good so fast. I was totally ready to throw down, except that she turned out to be extremely modest and nice, if a little afraid of a clumpy beginner in character shoes who wanted to talk about where her butter-yellow satin shoes came from.
She's not going to be in the city I'm going to, nor do I have plans to wow anyone with my flawless technique, as that would require flawless technique to begin with, and hahahahah!
I am, however, taking my flashiest shoes. If I'm going to suck, I'm going to suck proudly!

Suck like a vacuum! I'm sucking with you in spirit, call me Hoover.
Seriously, you're going to be f-i-i-i-i-i-ne. And I'm betting you're going to have a blast, and if not, at least something to write about. ;)
Going to miss you for 2 WHOLE weeks.
*Sigh*
