good time had by all...
Sep. 11th, 2002 07:58 amWent to a contra dance last night. It was the first time I'd been after only going a couple of times with
computerchix about five years ago. What a blast! I was messing up, but I surprised myself how much I remembered after getting into it again. The band, Merriweather, was awesome - some great bodhran, fiddle, tin whistle, flute, and hammer dulcimer. The caller was okay. A friend that was there said they have much better callers on occasion. Did three contras, sat out for the square (needed a breather), two more contras, and had to head home as the band closed the evening with two waltzes (I was exhausted and didn't want to step on any toes). I was so tired I couldn't get to sleep last night. I'm asking myself why it has taken five years for me to get back there. Going to get
computerchix and hopefully some of my coworkers to go next week.
