So You Think You Can Dance is one of my favorite shows. When I watch the dancers, especially the ballroom dancers, I get homesick for my passion. I used to ballroom dance eons ago in high school and college, but it's a hard hobby to carry on after you get married especially if your husband hates to dance. I can't say, "Okay, see ya honey, I'm going dancing with Henry!" Yea, that probably wouldn't go over well. Tim and I were watching the show last night and I said, "Doesn't this just make you want to dance?" He said nothing and shook his head no. Then I asked Addi if she wanted to do that someday, her response, "I want to do that all by myself. Not with a boy!" Maybe there is hope for me to live vicariously through Hally.
I am posting this clip because I went to high school with this guy (There are actually 4 people from Utah on the show). His name is Thayne Jasperson. I never knew he danced, he was a pretty popular kid at school. He said in this clip that he quit dancing when he was little because he got made fun of. Him and his partner are both contemporary dancers, so their ballroom technique isn't precise, but it is still hot and fun to watch!

I totally know what you mean Steff! I miss dancing so much, but AJ doesn't care at all about it. I have actually thought about taking some class, just for the fun of it, and I danced at BYU while I was married, so I figured he wouldn't care if I danced now with someone else. :) We should find some local class and go together.
Wowser, that is hot! I'll have to start watching it more regularly.
Sometimes it doesn't take that long. You just have to wait and see what happens, who quits etc.
