Separation Anxiety Starting to Rear Up

Serious Separation Anxiety- only 2 More Days- But What a Night at Ideal
Since we’ve had no water for 3 days we’re a bit grungy. At home, I’d be mad and trying to control it all- phone calls, more phone calls and using my “in charge” manner that I leave behind when we live, notice I didn’t say visit, in BsAs. After a 3:00 AM turn-in, a shower would have been a nice change, but I’d rather NEVER have another shower then return to the life in PA where we busily push to exist in the phony fast-paced world I don’t understand.
Andrew danced with Stella at the Dandi. -moved at a quiet, graceful even pace and on the beat. His first lesson in Argentina and I don’t think it will be his last.
Andi danced with Pablo and floated. Mike and I stumbled along wrestling with each other-too much thinking about the new way of walking. Luckily we know our next few months at home will bring all the lessons together and the dance will flow again.
After 3 hours of Stella and a quick Musel dinner we headed for the show at Confiteria Ideal. Gustavo’s mom was there to see him too. Also talked to Eduardo, Kikki and Silvana.
Headed up to the milonga. Cecilia showed up because she heard we were there. CJ, Andi and Andrew got to meet our instructors and then they put on a show for us with 5 or 6 amazing tangos. Every day here I say to Mike, “This is the best day of my life.” The candy store winds down on Tuesday.
