A Wink and a Smile

This semester I am taking Beginning Tap from BYU. It's fantastic! I love my class and the dances we learn are a lot of fun. Last week I was sick and had to miss my class both Tuesday and Thursday. When I got back to class this week, I found out that we would be testing our dance of "A Wink and a Smile" by Harry Connick, Jr. on Thursday. Oh, joy. So last night was spent learning the rest of the dance. I was feeling pretty FRUSTRATED with the whole business and was UPSET at myself for not remembering the sequences. My friend was over last night and allowed me to teach him my dance because the best way to learn is to teach, right? Well, by the end of the night, I had learned my dance and he had learned the last half. It was a lot of fun to teach someone else my routine and we had a blast tap dancing, in our socks, in my kitchen.

Is that the same friend who took you to the CB? It it is, perhaps you can take your show on the road and shock the socks off all those menfolk in the CB. :-)
