I happen to like people-watching. It's a lot like bird-watching, except instead of watching birds, you watch people. This morning on my way to class, I spotted another dancer. It reminds me that I'm not dancing nearly as much as I used to, and I should be. It's funny how you can always tell someone who has the same hobbies as you do. Dancers present themselves in a very specific and recognizable way. I could get into details, but the short version is that as soon as I saw this guy, I thought to myself... "He looks like a Latin dancer." And he did. Really. From the top of his sleek little head to the bottom of his shoes, that's what he was. It's sorta like you might say to yourself, "There goes a horse," and never doubt for a second that you were looking at a horse, and not a cow or a pig. It's just what the guy is.

You just know.

And I plan on getting back into dancing as soon as I can. Which, of course, means as soon as I have another day off that coincides with anything anyone's doing.

Which really could be quite a long time.
