Yes, There Will Be Dancing

So the other day somebody asked me if there will be dancing at the reception. I was on the verge of saying "Of course there'll be dancing! Didn't you read the invitation?" when I had one of those forehead-slapping moments. We completely forgot to mention the dancing in the invitation!

Rest assured, however, that we scheduled the reception in a gym for a reason. Yah, you betcha (as they say in the Old Country*) there will be dancing. Our DJ is Darrah Chavey, leader of my Friendship Rounds dance club, so he'll have lots of ballroom music. And, since he also DJs for the monthly dances at Beloit College, he's also got a ton of stuff that'll appeal to folx who've never heard of Glenn Miller or Fred Astaire.**

So bring your dancing shoes and be prepared to trip the light fantastic with us.

  1. Will Baptists, too, be expected to dance?

    1. Ah, a takeoff on the old joke about why Baptists don't have sex standing up. "Because then people might think they were dancing." 8^D

      No, nobody is expected to dance, but the opportunity will be there for those who wish.

  2. The variant which I have usually heard of the joke is that they won't have sex standing up, because it might lead to dancing! lol
