nicely endorphined :)

Went dancing tonight... English Country Dance in Palo Alto. [personal profile] tenacious_snail and I shared the ride. I plunged in, sat out no dances, made shameless eye contact, and by the end my shirt was soaked. But I was happily floaty on a sea of endorphins :). I hadn't done ECD in a couple of years, but it came back promptly.

Otherwise... earlier today, a demonstration was rescheduled and caused me to be late to my lunch with [personal profile] cyan_blue, but they also went very well.

Glad you two had a wonderful time out dancing! The "shameless eye contact" aspect has always been my favorite part of those dances, too :-)

And thanks very much again for a most excellent afternoon.

I didn't know that you danced! Heh. With your huge, wide blue eyes, you could knock them over... :)

Awww... :-)

I've done a bit of regency dancing. My crowd in NYC was into it, and so I first did regency with my friends there, and liked it. Thus, when I moved to California and went to my first Baycon, I wandered by the regency dancing event there... and that's where I met Emmett. We bonded over being the two least capable ones on the dance floor. I'm still not terribly good at it, but I enjoy it lots, and would likely enjoy it even moreso now that my body is in better shape. I've been to a few of the Friday Night Waltz and Bay Area English Regency Society events, in addition to the Baycon ones.

Glad you had a good time. Sorry to have missed it, but it was probably for the best. I was exhausted and crampy and just couldn't manage to get up the energy to leave the house again. Went and took a nap instead. Let's try again, though. The vision of you making shameless eye contact is a good one, and I'd like to see it for myself again. :^D

Happy to make shameless eye contact whenever you're in the mood... (wink).
