Today, I did a very strange thing- very strange. It will shock some of you into thinking you don't know me anymore. Maybe I don't know myself anymore.  I signed up for dance classes . I KNOW!! Can you believe it?!? I can't. I am gonna pause here and let those of you who fell off you chairs get up. ........... Are you o.k.? Now here is the thing- I don't watch those dance shows at all- so that isn't it. The deep dark secret that is no secret is that I don't like to dance- I feel really silly. BUT I have always had this desire to learn to waltz etc. I drive past a dance studio near my house, and I just decided I am gonna do something that is so out of character for me, and something that I NEVER thought I would actually do. And that idea made me really happy so I knew it was the right decision. I'll let you know about that after the first class!!! I thought, "hey it would be fun to do this with a group of friends..." so I sent out something like 20 e-mails- and I was overwhelmed with the lack of response!!! HA! One person has taken this particular class, one person hates but loves the idea and is thinking about it, and one person was going to see if they could get a friend to join too. The rest just kind of pretended to not get an email that involved dancing!!! I conned my brother into going with me- he likes to try new things. We of course got razzed by our older brother, and my father just kept laughing...  . My biggest concern- do you remember that Malcolm in the Middle episode when Lois was taking dance lessons?? More on the whole thing after the first class.

It's a shame I don't live close to you -- I'd have gone with you. I've always wanted to take dance classes. My husband and I have talked about it for years, but one of us has always worked nights. Good for you, I say. I hope you have a great time!
