Line dancing this morning at the senior center, after Drama Workshop with Frank which I had to leave half an hour early as Vera, our dance instructor, was offering semi-hopeless cases like me a pre-class 30 minute semi-private coaching session. Again and again she took the four of us through "Sea Cruise," which I gather is the group's signature dance, until even I had it fixed in my head and could go through the steps in the right sequence and remember what to do when the dance began again.
At 10:30 the regulars began to file in. We dance in half of the lunch room, with the tables pushed back. First dance was the one we'd been practicing earlier, and of course I found myself stumbling even though I'd been doing it perfectly before. I find it difficult to remember the sequence of steps and the whole thing is tremendously humbling, not that I really need that, but the glorious thing is that no one cares if you do it "wrong" and there's no judgment. Certainly you need a heavy dose of Aquarius in your chart to be able to do it (line dance at the senior center, I mean), but with an Aquarius Moon in 11 and Uranus in the first, I seem to be able to overlook the ripeness in the air by about 11:15 each week and concentrate just on the good stuff.
Anyway, Miss I Live to Serve here with Jupiter in Virgo at the end of the fifth found herself volunteering to download the music to all the dances we do, burn X number of CDs and bring them to next week's session for the giveaway price of 50 cents a disk. End of Mercury opposed to Jupiter post.
