chimakwaOh my poor head.
Tonight was the first night of square dance class for us; we're taking Advanced for those of you familiar with squaring up. For those not, let's just say it's the third circle of hell in which you can expect your brain to start squishing out your ears to the strains of either "Turkey in the Straw" or Cher's "Believe". (Our Advanced teacher is more traditional so the former is more likely. On the other hand, he has an evil streak so you never know.
My main problem tonight was that I haven't had a chance to dance Plus (the level I last learned) all summer so I was having issues calling immediately to mind exactly what you do when you're in the middle for "Load the Boat" or, my particular bugbear from last spring, "Chase Right" -- let alone Quartering Thru or Turn and Dealing.
I expect it will get easier as I get back into the flow of things. At least we quit early tonight so as not to have too much to review before learning new stuff next week. I don't think I could have managed much more.
