My husband and I are not really the going out type. We've pretty much just stayed home for years. But for whatever reason (probably that the boys are old enough to watch their sister and put her to bed) we've started going out dancing once a month and it's more fun than I could have ever imagined.
It's all about the music for me. At Filmistan, DJ Anjali and the Incredible Kid play nothing but Hindi film music. You wouldn't think that would draw crowds as Portland is nowhere near Bombay, but lots of people show up and dance for hours. The first time we went we worried about being too old or too fat or too dowdy but the lights are dim and no one is looking anyway.
I don' t know why we're only just now discovering the fun of going out dancing (in our 20th year of marriage) but it's a good thing nonetheless.![Reblog this post [with Zemanta]](http://img.zemanta.com/reblog_e.png?x-id=2f3c6af7-3262-4599-b210-662672074a77)

i LOVE that you are doing this!! it sounds like so much fun. and reminds me that e + i haven't been out dancing in wayyyy too long. we used to do cajun dancing when we lived in louisiana (way out in the bayou with all the old folks :) ) but i think it's something we need to put back into our lives!
