338/365 A Fourth Paul
We met repeatedly—but only—on the Dance Flurry floor. He had a mean swing, and his signature move was a full dip at swing’s end. Exhilarating. Last I swung him, he was on his way to seminary. Truly a man of some god.
Inspired by Fat Red Ant, who was inspired by Dan Waber, I am taking up the challenge to write about 365 memorable people whose paths have crossed mine. The form is 44 words, in honor of the number of years spent running into them.

"Last I swung him"--gee, I live it when you use euphemisms!
Nate: The good news is, I don't think he was going to that kind of seminary.
SY: You're asking for it. (Ooops, there I go again. And yeah, you do live it.)
I'd also like to mention something about the "Truly a man of some god" part.
I.B.'s dance god perhaps?
lolololo: Good catch. Perhaps. Perhaps. Perhaps.
Hey, I've known some Benedictine monks who could *dance*
These postings are so educational; I've never heard of the Dance Flurry. Another thing to put on my "to do before I die" list.
Love that last line!
Bridgett: I'm not surprised.
Helen: I was all set to go last year, the first time in a long time, when a freak storm closed down Saratoga Springs for the weekend. I plan to be there this year, probably just for a day. Let me know if you're planning to show up.
what can I say - everyone else beat me to it. Fab!
I want a Dance Flurry too! ...
That would be fun! I'm a terrible dancer; I should probably take a year of lessons first. Will you still be in blog-touch next year?
Helen: I hope to start something else up after this is done (perhaps a tad less ambitious). That is, if I can figure out how to set up a blog again! AND, once the real flurry schedule is up, check it out. Lots of beginners' sessions.
