I haven't bought a video game in years. I think I'm in withdrawal. Granted, I've played them off-and-on and the newest games I've come to own have been purchased for me - THANK YOU, FRIENDS.
Going cold-turkey on pole dancing is taking it's toll. I went to ballroom/latin party at a dance studio Saturday night and after one foxtrot and a cha-cha, I was ready to take a breather. "You're the young one," a gentleman stated. My response went something like, "Youth has nothing to do with it. You need to use it to keep it." Aka, I'm out of shape.
To remedy this, I'm using the money I saved from canceling my pole dancing lessons to better my ballroom dancing. If I'm going to compete, I should take it more seriously anyway. I'm a great dancer in some areas. Watching couples on the dance floor this weekend made me very humble from a realization that I don't know a good number of dances. It's easy to get lessons for Waltz, Foxtrot, Rumba, Cha-cha, et al. But I like Samba, Bolero, West Coast Swing.... and those dances aren't frequently taught. I suck at the V. Waltz (because it's never been taught to me) and I've never done the quickstep in my life. Heck, I've only ever seen it danced once - and that was this weekend.
May goal: Quickstep & West Coast Swing lessons
