-Not all of my posts are huge, and they probably shouldn't be. Amy and I had a
-really great time yesterday at Two Left Feet Dance Studio, learning more about
-how to dance the Carolina Shag in preparation for our wedding (which is in less
-than 20 days)! An enormous swing band is going to play all of our favorites
-from the brass band/swing era, and one of the easiest dances to do to that
-music is the Shag. I wrote a paper on the Shag a few years ago for school but
-never actually learned how to do it. The steps are simple for us to remember
-and it's easy enough to add flair or mix it up so we look like we know what
-we're doing during our first dance.
-
-We also got out to see the new Lion King remake and I can honestly say it was
-worth it. If anyone's a Lion King purist, it's Amy. It's easily been her
-favorite movie since she was a toddler, and to see it tastefully redone almost
-25 years after it was first released was thoroughly enjoyable. There were minor
-alterations to literal sentences in the script that all added some context to
-things that were always kind of assumed in the original (clarification on
-Scar's backstory, etc.). I did however feel like they were trying to throw
-Beyonce lines the way a middle-schooler tries to turn a 500-word paper into a
-700-word paper. Regardless, it's definitely re-living the classic, not
-re-hashing it.
