Dancing
That “Frankenstein move” there is straight out of A Charlie Brown Christmas.
And I love to dance… I just don’t do it nearly enough!

I enjoy dancing, too. (Square-dancing is among my favorites. Okay, I’m weird.) If only I didn’t look like a hippopotamus who was more likely to break a leg than bust a move.
Gah, Pete… yer so WEIRD! Nah, not really… you are more unique. I just watched the movie, Coco before Chanel. In the mini documentary on the disc, someone said that Coco was “an irregular” … I like that… she was uncommon… which is how she changed fashion for women. Her view was different from everybody else’s… and she her vision was rewarded.
I went to high school in Arizona, where square-dancing was a 9-week requirement for freshman PE. I was one of the few who enjoyed it. I square-danced on occasion over the years and just love the patterns and movements and steps. A real enjoyable group activity. And the calling! It was always fun.
“Swing yer partner, round and round!
Throw him in the terlet, flush him down!”
(Well… they never used THAT one. But it was a lot of fun!)
I bet Randie calls businesses just to listen to their on-hold music. A Starving Artist trait, perhaps?
I always liked squaredancing and I think it’s silly that it has such a bad reputation. It’s a more challenging version of line dancing is all.
Growing up, my parents enrolled my brother and I in alot of weekend and summer activities. The science stuff was quite fun, but at the time I never liked the dancing classes. We learned how to square dance, line dance,ballroom dance, and just about any great style of dancing. I wish now that I could still remember how to dance!:)
I learned all my dance moves from A Charlie Brown Christmas!
Heh, I get the strangest looks from folks that borrow my iPod….
‘You know, most folks that have a playlist labeled Latin doesn’t mean that the songs are IN Latin!’
‘Wait…. Mariner’s Revenge Song is about one sailor murdering another after they have both been swallowed by a whale?’
‘You know, The Werewolf is pretty danged horrible….’ (My only excuse on that one is that the Holy Modal Rounders sang the original – but I prefer the covers… the Holy Modal Rounders really is kinda horrible….)
‘You have how many songs about Sweeney Todd?’
The Auld Grump, as for dancing… I am a danger to all around me, most especially my partner. (She is 4’6″…. I am 5’10” We do not exactly match steps on the floor….)
