I wish! Unfortunately those clogs I have are too big for you (remember how you insisted on wearing them anyway and hit me with one when it slipped off your foot?). But I went through my wardrobe looking for something tighter and all I found were those leggins that Femme once wore at a TC party:

 I have been to a few Chopin recitals, but have yet to witness any dancing at them

Maybe it is not exactly a "recital" you are talking about ...

A well known dance in Scotland is the Highland Fling. Rumour has it that it originated when a laird was out on the grouse moors and he got a swarm of midges up his kilt. {#lang_emotions_unsure}

But since I am "Mexican"..... here is our traditional folk dance.... We all dance this in elementary school as part of our "voluntary" (forced) participation in school recreational activities.

Good memories though! {#lang_emotions_bigsmile}
