Blues in a Red Room

After many delays and schedule conflicts, I was finally able to tag along with Mimi and Juliaface to Do Something Blue. I was a bit apprehensive at first - I'd heard the descriptions. I'd looked up the videos. What? --you put your legs where??? Add to that my awkward, jerky movements and nonexistent hip-movin' muscles and my homg-stranger-what-do-I ( Read more... )

I LOVE THIS WALL OF TEXT!

You describe the whole experience so well, I'm positively glowing right now. I especially love the paragraph you devoted to talking about getting "in the zone" dance-wise. You make it sound like pure poetry <3 I haven't gotten into that hypersensitive, completely in tune with the music/partner bubble as much as I'd like (I spend waaay too much time freaking out in my head and catching myself anticipating .___.).

You don't fail, you're quite the opposite... you whale! That made no sense, but I digress. And I'm not just saying that because I'm your friend and have the self-esteem of a guppy.

Your explanation of the social dance dynamic - my thoughts exactly. Blues is an intimate dance, but at the end of the night, that's all it is - a dance. Anyone who reads more into it than that is not thinking straight.

Major spiel, sowwies.

P.S. I got a chuckle out of the title.

I LOVE THIS. I really do. And I was thinking about your word, hobo-nibble. It doesn't make much sense because if hobos were given food, they certainly wouldn't nibble it.. inhaling would be more correct.

BUT OOHLALA. YOUNG MATT DAMON. I don't find Matt Damon very attractive, but I saw pictures of him younger and... <3

I really want to go with y'all to DSB... but I'm still very unprepared for it, not to mention that my father is an ass about me going out dancing.

I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO YOUR NEXT DSB BLOG. TEEHEE.

Haha! I was thinking of how hobos huddle over trashcans... So hobo-nibble would mean nibbling on something while hunching over a bin.
