Z, The Beginning of Everything
So I started watching the miniseries, Z, The Beginning of Everything. It started off slow but it gets really interesting.
It was hard to me to accept a suspension of disbelief, after having first watched #MidnightInParis,a film which does a better job of casting the part of F. Scott Fitzgerald.
Still now six episodes in, I find it riveting. The backdrops and film locations are as fascinating as the story. Having watched the scene where Zelda first arrives in New York City, I am still trying to guess the location in New York, when Zelda departs the train station. I am wondering if this is the old Penn station, the sign says 33rd St.

Rebooting
It has been over a year since I've attended a dance competition. After spending a long time off the dance floor, it was nice to return to the Snowball, as it has a reputation for being the friendliest event in the ballroom circuit.
Since losing my business, most of my former students have moved on to other instructors. Call me crazy, but I am very happy for people when they are successful with others! This has also been a good opportunity for me to start with a clean slate. I have been teaching newcomers at a nonprofit art space, and things seem to be going really well. Now that I have a few dancers who are ready to get their feet wet, I thought Snowball would be the best place to start.
After some time off...
I have taken a few months of from blogging, after dealing with some privacy issues. I'm still on the fence with what I am comfortable with, as far a sharing.
