Back into the swing of things!

After a 3 month hiatus I have returned to salsa classes. I took a break during my whole work-overload plus the drive from my previous job to class took easily an hour. Now I can go home for an hour before heading to class and it only takes me about 20 minutes – it’s a much better situation.

So my first class back was this Wednesday and it was nice to see the same friendly faces. Other than being more easily tired and the feet hurting a little sooner than usual, I don’t think I have forgotten much.

Last night I also went dancing. My teacher, who *very rarely* goes out to the clubs, was actually going out last night so I took a friend who is interested in learning and headed out. As always the band sounded great, the music was loud and bodies were shaking and sweaty. LOL.

I didn’t dance as much as I had wanted to but then again, I got winded a little sooner than usual. I left a little after midnight and today I am paying for it. My legs are slightly sore and I am exhuasted. The sleepiness hits me as I sit here and type, my eyes losing focus. I am trying the drastic measure of drinking a Coke at 9:30 AM to see if I can pull myself out of this fogginess. I am consider taking a couple of Advil to see if it eases the soreness.

For the record, I only had one drink last night – a sangria margarita (albeit a strong margarita) – and that was a post-dinner, pre-dancing drink. I don’t like to drink when I dance and instead I guzzled down a bottle of water at the club. So this is not a hangover, I just haven’t been getting enough sleep and it has caught up with me.

So, wish me luck getting through the work-day. Ugh!
