I have got quite a bit of practice time last week. It was productive, but caused me missing my usual social dancing fix. I even was too tired to drive to the all-nighter last night. Now, I feel a little disappointed and withdrawn because of it. I haven't danced with my new tango sweetheart for 2 weeks, and I really miss his embrace. I miss other people with whom I like to dance, but who hardly show up at the downtown milongas.
The only dancing I manage to get into my system in a week was a small local milonga on Friday. It was my first time at the place, and the evening exceeded all expectations. I had a lot of fun, chatting with a friend about tango lessons, chatting and dancing with my partner, sharing wonderful tandas with some of my local favorites, and getting acquainted with a new leader I was curious about some time ago.
I am looking forward to the next week. It is time to get back in shape despite the gloomy weather. I have a workshop on Monday, a class on Tuesday and, hopefully, a milonga afterward. My ballet class starts on Wednesday. Things are looking up.
I have to be very careful, though, to avoid the partnership pitfalls that seem to resurface suddenly. That stuff is not good for me, for my tango. I even consider canceling that partnership, to be honest. Right now I am not sure either I can manage it anymore, or do the advantages it gives me are worth the troubles it puts me into. Will live and see.
