Dancing started this evening at 8:00 p.m. We are helping with the "hall monitoring" for the C-1 hall. What that means is that we keep track of dancers as they enter and leave the hall and make sure they sign in and out. We also run the computer program that assigns dancers to squares. Fortunately, we're not the only ones doing this. Glenn and Char are taking turns with Ken and me, an hour at a time. I've done it before, at AACE a couple of years ago, and it's much easier here in Paris because we have fewer squares and a smaller hall to keep track of.
This evening we had four squares tops in the C-1 hall, and much of the time only three. That didn't keep us from having lots of fun. We spent a fair amount of time earlier in the day reviewing the calls. We haven't danced since last May, so we needed to kick start our brains a bit!
We were happy to see Jim and Jane Booth in the hall. We dance with them every winter in the RGV. We recognized several other couples from dancing with them here in Paris last year and the year before. We did see some other friends, but only in passing as they were headed to the C-2 hall (Terry and Linda, Kit and Marty, and Hardy and Judy). We heard that C-2 had only two squares tonight. We're definitely hoping for more squares tomorrow.
Unfortunately I started having symptoms of a UTI this morning. I have meds that I got in Mexico stashed to deal with this, so I started right away on antibiotics and was much better by this evening. It is a big pain to have to try to track down an urgent care and get an RX, and it introduces a delay during which the bacteria have a field day.
