bjarvisWe had much fun with C1 dancing last night.
Somehow, various folks have decided we should be dressing in themes for our Wednesday events: last night, we were to dress in orange t-shirts (matching the horrid colour scheme of the room we use). Dunno why, we just are. Michael M. brought a spare shirt for me as I have not a single article of orange clothing.
Next week's theme is red. Go figure.
I've been coordinating much of the Wednesday dancing since our C1 boot camp last October. It's not much, just setting up Evite to ensure we have enough bodies and confirming the space is available. Still, I've viewed our Wednesday sessions as a series of interim workshops only, designed to get us all up to a reasonable C1 skill level leading up to AC/DC in mid-February: I've never given a thought to extending them past AC/DC.
Other dancers have different ideas, however. Donna is pushing me to extend the series more or less indefinitely, although perhaps scaling back to every other week. I'm pushing it back to her: if she wishes to keep it going, she can do the organizing, or con someone else into it. I'm having fun with the workshops, but I have other organizational priorities currently.

kent4str and I jointly called a C1 tip last night. I managed to test-drive four figures, three of which went well. The fourth only had a single snag in triple boxes... I'll redraft the closer of that figure to clear up the issue. We'll call a tip again next Wednesday which should give me enough proven material for a full tip at AC/DC.
