Fancy Footwork

Months! That's how long I've been waiting to attend Riverdance. 

Well, actually I've been waiting for years. But it's been months since I purchased the tickets. 

I saw Riverdance years ago in Portland with my friends. I've been mildly obsessed with seeing it again ever since. Imagine my elation when I discovered that the good folks of Riverdance were coming to my town. 

It's about time, guys. 

I decided to take Sissy out on a date with me. She was lukewarm on the idea. Not about dating me, just about seeing Riverdance. Or maybe about dating me. Who knows.

ANYWAY - Riverdance, people!

Sissy and I brushed our hair and put on our nice clothes. We went to dinner. We held hands as we crossed the street to the venue. It was a proper date.

And then....magic!


Sissy quickly fell into the Riverdance trance and we had a marvelous time. We weren't allowed to take pictures until the end but I soaked it all up and hollered like a madwoman.

As we were leaving, the man sitting in front of me turned around and said, "I don't know which one of you was hollering..."

I thought, "Oh, no. He's going to yell at me for my loud mouth."

And then he finished, "...but you have the perfect cheering voice. I loved it."

Huzzah!

It was a wonderful night and I can't wait to start obsessing about when I can see the show again.

Thank you for coming to my town, Riverdance!
