Prepping.

"Good stories only happen to those who can tell them well" I heard that quote the other day, and really liked it.

Just food for thought

Meanwhile, the weekend was fun. Atlanta Brewing dance rocked. It was fun to see so many people attend the event I planned. It's an easy venue, and people enjoyed themselves. I can't wait for next month's dance.

The reason I like it so much is that as opposed to all the other dances I attend, this one is more public (meaning people can accidentally happen upon it). I like that it's public because
a) friends of mine who have no idea that I dance or have never seen me dance have a chance to come out and see why I am always ditching them to dance.
b) it shows people how much fun we have dancing, and hopefully get them interested in trying it out too!

Anyway, it is the first Sunday of every month, 5-7:45 at Atlanta Brewing Company.

I am about to head out and go dancing again tonight after going for a refreshing run. Today was my last running day before the peachtree road race. I am excited to see if maybe I beat last year's time.

Last year I did just under 62 minutes - start to finish. I would like to do it in under 60 this year. Last year however, included in those 62 minutes was stopping to get a Moe's teeshirt (which I have since lost), catching a Mellow Mushroom water bottle (which I have since lost), and saying hi to a family friend on the side for a few seconds and getting my picture with them. I still plan on running the same way this year, being a fun part of the crowd, but I'll do it faster ;-)

I'll keep you posted on how that ends up going.

Hey, that reminds me about a venue we used to have out here (in fact, the first venue where I hooked up with the scene beyond the people taking lessons at Rice). It was a monthly dance in the cafe at a Borders. The floor wasn't good, but the people were simply wonderful.

Glad to hear your event went well!
