Square dancing; wine

[cjsmith]

A friend reminded me that because she sees my posts through a feed of some sort, all she gets is titles, and that has to be enough to let her know whether a post is worth clicking through to read. I'll try to be a bit more obvious with titles. :-)

Rob and I spent the weekend square dance calling. Of the levels we called (A2, C1, C3A, and C3B) we were probably meanest to the C1 dancers. It's fun to get that chance every so often, where most of the floor rises to the challenge. We didn't crank it up as much when calling to the Advanced folks, but I thought I saw a few people reboot out there on the floor.

Dietary experiments began last night. 1 glass of Robert Mondavi Coastal Pinot Noir. I do love that stuff. Today I don't feel like a truck hit me, so either a glass of red wine is okay or the alcohol helps counteract the insomnia enough that I can't tell it's not okay.

Half way through my two-week run of "no days off" time and still functional.

Great to see you Saturday!

It was good to see you in person too! It's funny how we know each other more through LJ, even though we're really not far apart geographically.

Isn't everything you post worth reading?

[cjsmith.livejournal.com]

Most of it isn't.

[rfrench.livejournal.com]

Darn. I've been wasting my time.

[cjsmith.livejournal.com]

Ha! Fooled another one!

I make up titles that may or may not have anything to do with the post, and really don't care if people get them or not. I'm not writing for them - that's just a secondary benefit.

I enjoy doing that, but I also use the memories feature to keep track of stuff (I'm not on S2 so tags don't work for me) and it's a lot easier to find things when I've made titles that do go with the post. It's all tradeoffs! :-)

i started titling my posts the first time i had to try finding something in the calendar view (: (also, yay for red wine!)

[cjsmith.livejournal.com]

Yes, I'm definitely pleased! I'll try it one more time before declaring victory, but it's looking good.

I'm not on S2 either, but I use tags quite successfully! You can still use 'em! They're great for finding posts you've tagged.

no C2 assignments, huh? Bummer.

Two star tips, and that was it for the weekend. We were doing PACE NorCal, where the schedule changes a bit from month to month. Our weekend was considered a "C1 focus" (two sessions of C1, one of A2/C3A/C3B) so the only C2 tucked in there was the star tip stuff.

I am still hoping to make it to the West Coast A&C weekend, although as I still haven't made plans for it it looks less likely.
