OMG OMG OMG! There is sooooooooooooo much to do!!!!
Kev and I are trying to finish our Classic Routine and just started on our Showcase Routine. This is super stressful because we need to finish both, and polish them by this weekend, and I don't know if we can get all the work done that we'd like to have done.
We've been doing 2 hours on and 2 hours off at our dance studio. In the 2 hours off, Juan and Sharon are polishing their Classic and finishing their Showcase. OMG, there is so much going on in the house too. So so so.... in our "down time" we are still coming up with ideas so when we have the space, we can actually dance it.
There is not enough time in the day to choreograph 2 routines, watch the Olympics, prepare material for classes, teach group classes, and privates. And spend time with your significant other. Oh my word.
Well, that's the rant for the day. More after ILHC. I am sure we are going to pull something together.
Cheers.

Sunday night and Monday
Sunday night all the instructors were taken out to dinner to a pasta restaurant and the food was lovely. After the feeding we headed to the last bit of the dance. It was clearing by the time we got there, but there were a bunch of people for us to chit chat with. I got a bunch of social dancing in, which was nice and somewhat unusual for me. The highlight of the night for me was when Kevin and I did a pseudo-neo-swing performance. I asked Kevin to dance and he begrudgingly agreed, but decided to spice things up a bit. More people wanted to watch our old-school moves than dance, so it became a performance.
We headed home and I showered and washed out my clothes. Kev watched a movie while I played on the internet, but I didn't get to bed until 2:30am or so because I just wasn't tired.
Well, this morning we were awaken at 11am by a Swede. We said we thought check out was at noon, and he said that would be fine. Jane picked us up, took us to her place, offered to help us with our laundry, and then we headed to rehearsal. Kev needed to eat so we stopped by a nice place near the studio. We then needed time to digest so the first hour of rehearsal was spent reading Wired Magazine. Then we did calisthenics. It was much easier than our Friday practice, but we were still huffing and puffing at the end. We then did some ab work and then worked on the roll at the beginning of the routine. Janne (our current host) came to pick us up and then we headed back to his place. Dax and Alice stayed with him over the weekend and managed to leave a number of their belongings at the house. I assume they packed immediately before they left.
No surprise: Kevin and I hopped on the internet and did some emails (or tried) and then looked around on the internet for new dance clips. After a few hours we headed down the street and got some pizza with banana and curry....yum yum! We happened to eat enough to send us into food coma, so we laid down for naps but didn't manage to get up until about 1am. It's almost 3 am now.
