Tango

Work this afternoon was rather unremarkable. Like most Thursday’s, the office was pretty quiet. Dad dropped me at Tidewater in time for an early shuttle. After I got to Tulane I spent some time at the student center before making my way to Tilton.Class this evening was again about mathematical induction. I didn’t really understand the subject last week and this one was no different.After class, I walked over to Fogelman Arena where Tulane’s basketball team played Loyola University this evening. Loyola was thoroughly outmatched as they aren’t even in the NCAA, but it’s a convenient game to play since Loyola is literally next door. I only stayed for the first half. Tulane had about a 12 point lead when I left.This evening’s ballroom session was the first of four weeks of tango lessons. Attendance was pretty decent. Several familiar faces were missing but there were a handful of new people. Compared to swing, I found the simple tango steps to be a lot more manageable and I did pretty well this evening.Shortly after ten, intermediate salsa lessons started. I won’t be participating in these but I wanted to hand around for a few minutes and see just how complicated it was. Suffice it to say I would have been in way over my head. After I left I called a cab home and made it back before 11.

September 03: Denver in September
Today was the first of a five day trip to Denver with my friend Bianca. Tropical Storm Lee was moving towards the Louisiana coast today, bringing substantial but intermittent rain since yesterday. I wasn’t really worried about flight delays but I did think street flooding could keep us from the airport. The ride to the [...]

August 26: Progress
Nearly two months have passed since my last post. Seeing a June date on my homepage after all this time has finally compelled me to throw another entry on here. I had planned a nice little summary of my month of jury duty at Orleans Criminal District Court but I couldn’t muster the enthusiasm. I [...]
