I'd like to be better at dancing
Not that I fail at it, but I'd like to be as good as Ms Foxtrot so I don't feel like I'm holding her back.

I'd also like to be able to sing. At all. Also: seeing things without the aid of contact lenses or glasses.

I'm pretty awesome at storing useless trivia in my brain, but I think I may have mentioned that before

I don't think I'd like to be better at dancing, I'm pretty useless so I just don't do it.
I prefer leaning against the bar and watching the world go by. I'm aware that probably makes me look like a creepy sex pest though.

I'm firmly of the opinion that dancing is something you have to love to get good at
Which is my excuse for not persevering with styles of dance I don't enjoy; eg Ballet (fucking, FUCKING difficult unless you've done it from an early age), Salsa (not really a dance, just wiggling) and contemporary (just fuck off)

Mrs Cow wanted to learn to dance so we went to classes a few years ago
Conclusion: We cannot dance, even with instruction

What kind of classes?

Just generic ballroom stuff
Tango, waltz, etc

Nobody realises until they do it that Ballroom is bloody difficult
It's stupidly technical, you can't let your brain turn off for a minute. Nobody gets good at it quickly. Ms Foxtrot does private lessons for couples who want to learn the basics. Bus fare might be pricey though.

It was £5 per lesson each and the school was supposed to be very good
The reason I work with computers is because I am a spaz when it comes to manual stuff. This would seem to include dancing

More money in computers than dancing anyway
Unless you're really fucking good at dancing, in which case it can be extremely lucrative and comes with added Cheryl Cole.

Does she ever get molested during these "private sessions"?

I highly doubt it

Good point
Tell you what, I'll spend all day worrying about it.
