Absolutely So Much Fun!

Last night I went to the Slow Dance Night at The Academy Club (see my google map for exact location) and had a complete blast. The event is not queer per se but there were quite a few queer women there to ask to dance, if you could get up the guts to. I also danced with some straight women and guys. In fact, making sure that I did not spend the night dancing with men gave me enough incentive to not be a wall flower and fill out my dance card with the people I wanted to dance with.

The music was soft enough for conversation to flow and I met quite a few new, to me, and interesting queer women. Quite a few were performers, perhaps because this slow dance was part of the fringe festival. It was also neat to discover who could slow dance or not. One of my friends referred to it as speed dating with a beat. I'm not sure about that, though, I have not bothered to look for the woman who trod on my feet on facebook. I guess I could venture that I auditioned ten women that night. Of those ten, only one caught my eye. Lucky me, she is the friend of a friend of a friend. Oh I love how small this city is, sometimes.
