Ballroom Dancing


While I know better than some of you not to get into blog wars with Harry, he did just post that dorky picture of me and diss ballroom dancing. So, in this picture you see the Pirate and Gypsie (costume night) practicing our foxtrot. He doesn't really look like he's hating it to me, but apparently it just isn't as COOL as diving. I recently saw a picture on one of the online news sites, of a guy riding a bicycle under water. It made me think - maybe Harry would like ballroom dancing more if he could do it under water. No - I'm not suggesting I want to try that, Harry, sorry. But if some of the Saipan bloggers want to hang out for drinks and to watch Harry dance the foxtrot and swing, tonight is the night! Or maybe some of our other divers would secretly like to be ballroom dancers, too. You never know. Darlene, Stephanie, Hozumi and Zandra manage to do both, and we're always looking for more dancers, especially more guys. A couple weeks ago we had a dance party at our house. That was a lot of fun. Two of the instructors came, and taught us some new moves and a salsa "group" dance. We never quite mastered that, but had plenty of laughs trying to learn. We hope to have more dance parties in the immediate future.

Us follicly challenged divers have to do some stuff to please the loves in our life, so cheers for harry, and this blog. Please don't tell my wife about this activity. Jeff, the other bald, diver blogger

Ok, it's become obvious that I'm going to have to lay down some hard and fast blogging rules before any further harm is done. I'll be addressing it later today in my blog. And I only hope that when you said "we" hope to have more dance parties in the immediate future, you were including Jeff & Cynthia in that.

Welcome to blogging, Kelli. And so nice of you to get right to the heart of the matter and expose Harry's proclivity for the Muse of Dance!

Great story, well written. Please keep it up.
