So last night I decided it had been far too long since I'd done any dancing, so I decided to throw a good night's sleep to the wind and go to the monthly swing dance hosted by the NY Swing Dance Society. I'm on their mailing list, so I get reminders all the time, but for some reason or another I've never been. Anyway, I went, it was fun, I danced a lot (as usual, attracting middle-aged men for dance partners. But they're the ones who can dance really well, anyways...) AND I ran into Mike, who used to be a Swing Bum at Trinity. He just moved up here a few months ago, and of course is already dancing like crazy. It was fun to see a familar face, and he luckily introduced me to a few more dance partners, more my age...
I also met someone who, learning I was from Ohio, asked me if I played Euchre, then told me about a group that meets in a Manhattan lounge every Saturday to play. I probably wouldn't go, but for some reason I really like the idea of a Euchre club. I love New York!
Unfortunately with the true retreat of warm weather, we seem to have lost warm water in the apartment, and it is not pleasant. I'm not showering in cold water all winter. Seriously. That is not an idle threat.
I'm going to DC with the Fellows this Wednesday through the end of the week. I'll try to come back with good stories.
Until then,
