Dance

My favorite thing to do ever since I was a kid is pull the curtains closed, crank up the music, and dance in the full-length mirror to work out my moves. Even though I am shy I love to break-in a dance floor! Even to this day my heart pounds fast and I fill with excitement and adrenaline when I see an empty dance floor while music is playing because I know what I must do! One of my earliest memories is of doing the twist in the center of an empty white dance floor at my parents' honeymoon in Jamaica. I was 5. I thought my stepfather was Cuban just like Ricky Ricardo. They both had the same hairdo and they both listened to boogaloo.
