E. M. Esq.

I don’t like being bad at things. If I do something and I’m not automatically a genius at it I get annoyed. This is probably why I can’t do a lot of things.

But occasionally I go temporarily insane and decide it doesn’t matter if strangers see a chink in my armour of awesomeness, and I give something new a shot. Thus the woman and I went to our first tango lesson last night.

Turns out I needn’t have worried – tango is remarkably straightforward. In fact, it’s really just a two-step process. See if you can master it!

For women, the steps are:

1. Stand kind of like this.
2. Follow the man.

For men, it’s:

1. Be an expert.
2. Are you an expert yet?

I admit I’m struggling a little bit with the second part, probably because my shoes aren’t quite pointy enough. I must work on that.
