vive salsa sunday!

this also is an overdue post about last weekend. sunday morning we went to church, where, oddly enough, my mom got to hear goodie preach again. she has been to mosaic twice, a year apart, and both times it has been goodie and not erwin. kinda funny. then we drove up to the mountains of burbank and ate at castaway. it really has the most spectacular view. last time she was here with my dad and max and we ate there but it was foggy. sunday it was clearer so we got to see most of burbank and into the valley. we went to ikea where we mostly bought dish towels. they didnt have a lamp or curtains that we liked. rather disappointing.




we went home and we girls changed into our party clothes and kris came and picked us up. lottie's friend ters was playing at a salsa club in pasadena. we got there early for lessons and to scope out the available men. we were all SO glad that we were all three happily married. slim pickins ladies! tera's band, red loquita, was great. the club was cool. the food was good. the highlight of the evening was when my mom and kris and i made the obligatory group trip to the bathroom. we passed by the row of unsuitable men cicrcling looking for unwary ladies to scoop up and salsa with and one of them blew his nose into the tail of his shirt. no, that wasnt the best part of the night. still coming. when we came out of the bathroom (no more than five minutes later mind you) he was dancing with one of lotties friends from her girls bible study. closely. i sure hope she cleaned her clothes well. we couldnt decide if we should tell her or not. but it was funny because he totally thought he was hot stuff but he was over fifty, with a beer gut and sweating profusely. lots of the men there had a perspiration problem. i was glad to be sitting on the side of the banquette that made it awkward for someone to ask me to dance. next time jeremy will go with me and that will be way funner. :D
