What was I thinkin'???

(taken from a letter to my two dear friends)


Hello dear Fru fru friends...

It's your long forgotten legal-allien-gone-south friend here, calling to tell you about my latest adventure...

So, I figured I needed;
a) to get out of my shell, hmm , house
b) to exercise
c) meet new people
d) learn how to dance samba
e) all of the above

I responded to an ad in the school's newspaper... 
To make the story short, the teacher picked me up and took me to the class. While he was preparing the music, his two helpers (two young ladies in dance attire) showed me pictures of the shows they've had, and told me about the one they are having today at the Maracana stadium, you know, the largest one in the world! Really?! Yes, more than 10,000 tickets have been sold, and 4000 more confirmed! 
 UH OH... I was hoping for a more, hmm simple?( is that the word I'm looking for?) class, yes a simple, non-pretentious, non-professional group...


Only two more ladies showed up...

the class started.
they moved to the right, I went left.
up, round, left, right,... just imagine Laurel Hardy dancing next to the Ginger Rogers in the class...AND the Fred...

uh oh. They slowed down because of me...
I tripped over myself..
this is pathetic...

To be continued.

(yes, do laugh if you can imagine the video)
