[Callers] Just had to share this:

It's 5:00. At 7:30 tonight I'll be calling a dance for about 150 Putney School teens freshly-returned from their Long Fall wilderness trips. They'll be smelly and exuberant. An hour ago at 4:00 I was planning my program and had a sudden wave of "Gosh, I'm sick of my own material." You know how it's easy to stick to the tried-and-true favorites you *know* will work? But once in a while your repertoire starts to feel like the pillowcase when you've been stuck sick in bed for too long? You turn it over and over but you can't find a fresh cool spot anymore? So I went to my gmail <sharedweight> archive, typed in "circle mixer", browsed a bunch of old threads, and am now going out the door freshly invigorated. What a vital, valuable, inspiring community this is. Thanks, all of you. Amy
