My Interests

dancing, music, travel, tikis, lion taming, people who comment me

This is my boy! What a solo, on a complicated Charles Mingus tune.Here are two totally amazing dance videos of the styles that I have been learning. I am in awe of these people.

This one is a spectacular Argentine Tango by Jorge Torres and Maria Franganillo. The ending move will knock your socks off!And this one is the incredible Jordan Frisbee and Tatiana Mollmann, a champion West Coast Swing couple. I saw them perform this new routine live at Liberty Swing. If I could only dance half as well as this...

I'd like to meet:

people who bring me chocolate, people who make me laugh, people who like to dance, and people who seek truth (not just truthiness, sorry Stephen Colbert).I LOVE PEOPLE WHO DANCE :) Check out my Youtube channel for videos of great swing, tango and ballroom dance performances! Also I saw this video below on youtube and was so amazed by it that I arranged a private lesson with this guy. He combines blues dancing and tango to create "tango fusion" and the result is so cool!

TAGGED! My Favorite Films

I got tagged a long time ago and never got to it. To be honest, I had trouble coming up with ten little-known things about me. I just don't contemplate myself that much! I think deeply about some o...

Not in my own write...New Chapter: Lingo Bingo

I found this article on the website of a British newspaper. This is one of those corny stories that tries to clue in the adults to the kids "newfangled lingo". Come on. I'm a grown woman, not a tee...

Not in my own write

So, I saw a column in the L.A. Times and laughed my butt off. I decided to share it with you, with full credit given to the writer, Joel Stein. I would write my own blog except that I write for a li...
